Okinawa, Japan
01
A 10-day field course on ecology and biodiversity at University of the Ryukyus, Okinawa, Japan. Most of the time we learnt about the animals on intertidal zone, while we also spent one day in Yanbaru (in the northern part of Okinawa island) look at the biodiversity on mountains.
Enjoy the beauty of nature in Okinawa.
