とんぼをおいかけて・・ ～♪～

８月末、稲刈りがもう間近です。At the end of August, the rice should be harvested soon.


稲穂でキチョウが一休み。A large grass yellow resting on a ripe rice ear.




群生する山蕗。美味だろうな～♪　Edible wild Japanese butterbur was growing gregariously.

Linden viburnum berries were scarlet red. They are also good to make fruit liquor.
