Yatomi Wild Bird Sanctuary

The Yatomi Wild Bird Sanctuary includes protected wetlands, observation points, and educational displays that showcase various species of local and migratory birds throughout the year.

The establishment of the sanctuary in 1975 marked a turning point in Japanese wildlife conservation, creating a dedicated space for bird protection in Aichi Prefecture.

The sanctuary represents Japan's commitment to environmental education, offering programs that connect visitors with traditional Japanese approaches to nature observation.

Visitors can access multiple observation platforms, walking trails, and educational facilities from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with peak bird activity occurring during spring and fall migrations.

The sanctuary maintains specialized feeding stations that attract different bird species across seasons, allowing photographers and researchers to document avian behavior patterns.
