Institute of Nature Study


 On a beautiful early Spring day in April, Bill and I traveled to Meguro (SW of central Tokyo) to the Institute of Nature Study and National Museum of Nature and Science.  This is a preserve of 50 acres of almost primal forest in Tokyo.  It preserves the pre-modern natural habitats of the Tokyo area, including forest, marshes, and ponds.  It is an ecological research and educational facility.


 





This was a lovely escape from the city!
