May is one of the most lovely times to visit the rice field areas near the Han estuary, when water in the fields attracts different species of waders, but the density of plants is not yet so high that good views are impossible. Certainly, the diversity of species is much lower than in the tidal flats further out in the West Sea (Yellow Sea), but the views are sometimes good, sometimes spectacular in the rice fields, and sometimes quite near. This time, we also had an interview with a crew filming Hangang Estuary in spring, summer, autumn and winter for a documentary which will be shown on JCTB this winter. The documentary is made by some of the most experienced Korean film makers and it is good to see that this kind of awareness raising for the healthy use of wetlands takes place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
