Forest concerts are held every day at Sahoro. At this time of year, there is a huge chorus of Ezoharu cicadas. It makes me feel that Hokkaido's short summer is just around the corner.

As you walk along the promenade, you can hear "cuckoo, cuckoo" nearby, and enjoy bird watching from a different perspective than usual, as the bird is 5 meters high.

In the evening and at night, you can hear the voice of the Ezosenyu, which sounds like "Joppinkaketaka"! ``Joppin'' means ``key'' in Hokkaido dialect, so it seems like they are telling you to lock the door at night by asking ``Did you lock the door?'' (^_^)

Forest concerts are held everywhere♪

←Shell of Ezoharu cicada

There were 20 to 30 on each tree. It should be a big chorus.　

←The Japanese jay is easy to find because of its large body. He is a good imitator and seems to imitate the cuckoo's call, saying, "Gakkou, gakkou."
