The two birds ( i mean the feathered ones) was getting freebies from this 2 girls, the Black-tailed Gull and Black-headed Gull (juve) at Ueno public park lake.
Great Egret that is found through out the year.
Rock Dove - feral variant
Black-tailed Gull winters locally in N. Japan but fairly common in Central and South Japan. Frequents parks (ref: Mark Brazil - Birds of East Asia)
Large-billed Crow, a common bird but not in numbers. Seen it flying around rice fields, mountains, lakes and city. Split has been proposed, giving Japanese Crow
c.japonensis (including connectens and osai) and Large-billed Crow
c.macrorhynchos (including mandschuricus and colonorum)
Eastern Spot-billed Duck (anas zonorhyncha) having a nap. Formerly considered a race of Spot-billed Duck
a.poecilorhyncha and also known as Chinese Spot-billed Duck.
