Snapshot 19  No.190-199


199. Vino
yamaha vino This is a scooter I happened to see during my cycling.
I waited for a while to talk to its owner but could not find the person.
It looks like the machine is called Yamaha Vino.

198. Goose

197. ?? surfing
k surfin k surfin 2
I happened to see what looks like surfing driven by a large kite at Makuhari on the latest series of holidays. As I had no camera, I coul not take the photo.

Though today is Monday, the southern wind looked fine for that surfing, I just visited that shore on my way home on an errand. There, boys, they are doing. Different from the ordinary wind surfing, this one is indeed splendid.

It looks this is called kite board or kite surfing.

195. Light armoured vehicle
soukousha Festival for "Manufacturing" annually held at a nearby park at this time of year.

Among the vehicles exhibited such as Iseki tractor, police cars, fire engines, Subaru XV, this GSDF light armoured vehicle is included.

The nameplate at the rear indicates Komatsu make. Arms are naturally dismounted, but it is a pity that its antenna too is disassembled.

194. "Utugi" (Deutzia)
unohana "Unohana" (blossom of deutzia) at my place are blossoming unusually well this year.
There are many varieties in Utugi and this one seems to be called "baika utugi" (ume-apricot-blossom deutzia).

193. Tulip tree
yurinoki Tulip trees have been blossoming.
The photo is for those at Kasiwanoha park.

192. Wisteria
fuji Wsisteria are blooming here and there. When they bloom, carpenter bees come frequently even in a town. Their flying at this time of year is something like just floating and drifting. Thus I tend to direct my camera to them. But, as I knew it, it is impossible to get an intended result.

The photo is not for those wisteria around our town but for the ones at Asikaga Flower Park. Though the famous "great wisteria" of this park is certainly glamorous, I think those with the setting in the photo look natural and better than the great.

191. Junior debut
simokuren Lily magnolia at my place has just bloomed. Though magnolia is not uncommon, this one is special for us. This is the offspring which appeared from the stump of the previous tree which had withered. This is the first blossoms in its 3rd year.

I bought the previous parent tree at a gardener in 1973. As the tree did not look to fit a train, I carried that lanky tree to my home by walking the distance of 2 railway stations. The tree had been in good shape for 7 years at the previous place, and more than 30 years at this place.

osidori osidori 2
Pictures are osidori (mandarin ducks) at the pond of Kawamura Art Museum as of Thursday 16th.
Looks like under preparation for their return trips.
