Japanese White-eye

                                   (Japanese White-eye and camellia"japanese name SAZANKA")
 

The Japanese white-eye especially likes the sweet fruit and flower nectar.

It blooms now, and almost camellia in Japan begins to bloom in sequence until spring at the beginning.

Most  of Japanese white-eye does it in the honey of this camellia.

Speaking of a camellia, there is a song sung with a Karaoke called”hotel of the camellia” with the Enka ballad of this country well.

It is the song which a man loves married women as for the contents of the song, and does not stop. But I do it how, and I do not know whether it is “hotel of the camellia”.

The contents of the song:（Vocal on English）

 (First phrase)

    Foggy window ,wipe it with your hand

    Oh darling,can you see tomorrow

    Even  if  I  love you

    You are another man’s wife

    Red in bloom but it’s a winter flower

    Blooming in loneliness,

    Sazanka(camellia) hotel
