I recently visited the Horobetsu River in neighboring Urakawa Town, so here is a report of what it looks like in winter.

Higashihorobetsu, Urakawa

Speaking of winter along the Hidaka coastline, the daimyo oak retains its leaves.

The Horobetsu River is crossed by three bridges: a pedestrian walkway, a road, and a railroad bridge.

There were swans in the Horobetsu River. The Hidaka Mountains were wrapped in clouds.

Either a tufted duck or a common goldeneye duck is diving into the water in front of the swans.
