Siberian Stonechat,ノビタキ

It migrates as a summer bird to Japan and breeds central Honshu and to the north.

And it can be seen in central Honshu and to the south in the time of spring and autumn migration.

　　　Quoted from Wikipedia's Japanese description 

The English name of this bird English name on descriptions in Wikipedia is "Siberian Stonechat", but in other documents, it is described as ”Common Stonechat”, ”African Stonechat”.

 日本では夏鳥として、本州中部以北に渡来し繁殖する。本州中部以南では春秋の渡りの時期に見られる。ウイキペディアでの記載英名はSiberian Stonechatであるが、他の資料ではCommon Stonechat, African Stonechatと記載されている。

It is now in the transition of winter feathers.（冬羽に移行中）

Red spider lily,彼岸花,Higanbana

The higan is Japanese own kind of event and other countries’ Buddhist don’t have such a culture.

And this Buddhist service is held during the week of the equinox each spring and autumn.

When it comes close to the autumn equinox, it begins to bloom all at once

Higanbana or 彼岸花 in Japanese is divided into two vocabularies with “”higan” and” bana”.

The Higan or 彼岸 means the autumn equinox, and bana or 花means flower in English.

What coined this is higanbana.

ヒガンは日本独自の行事で、他の国の仏教徒はそのような文化を持っていません。

そして、この仏教の行事は、春分と秋分の週に行われます。

秋分に近づくと、一度にすべて咲き始めます。

Higanbanaまたは彼岸花は日本語で "higan"と "bana"の2つのボキャブラリーに分かれています。

Higanまたは彼岸は秋分を意味し、Banaまたは花は英語の花を意味します。

これを造語したものがhiganbanaです。

Japanese Pheasants,キジ

It is because autumn migratory birds are coming soon.

I can't stop going out for photographing of wild birds, in spite of the low back pain.

However, migratory birds seem to have not yet come so far today,

On my way home, I was able to see the battling of male Japanese Pheasants.

もうそろそろ秋の渡り鳥が来る頃なので、腰痛ですが野鳥の写真を撮ろうと外に出ずには入れられません。しかし、今日は未だ来ていないようですが、帰り道でキジのバトルを見ることが出来ました。

 It seems not to be a full-fledged struggle.

According to the Wikipedia Japanese description,

Four subspecies due to geographical variation were distributed in Japan, but the crossing between subspecies has progressed by release birds and the difference is becoming obscure.

Rrescue flying-boat ,救難飛行艇

These are the images that past taken when I was photographing a wild bird.

If I look at the long-distance object closely with binoculars, it turned out to be a rescue- flying boat.

These are ShinMaywa Industry's made, as the rescue-flying boat of Japan Maritime Self--Defence Force, are active.

これらは私が野鳥を撮影していたときに撮影された過去の画像です。

私が遠くを 双眼鏡で良く見ると、救助飛行船であることが判明しました。

これらは新明和工業製のもので、日本海上自衛隊の救助飛行船として活躍しています。
