Tiny Birds That Look Like Flying Cotton Balls Live On Japanese Island

In the world of cute things, tiny is king. Smol is best. And to those of you rolling your eyes at that, "smol" isn't just a juvenile misspelling of a perfectly good word. Yes, tininess is a very important element of being truly smol, but there is also an emotional element.

Hokkaido is the second largest island in Japan and is home to a lot of preserved wildlife areas, including six national parks and 17 quasi-national and prefectural parks. As such, it has become famous for its wildlife diversity and there are many species that can only be found there. Other animals in Hokkaido have unique features, which is the case with these tiny birds.
