〜This calls for a celebration. 雀始巣〜
The seasonal phrase for the latter half of March is this, “sparrows start building nests”. Because I live quite near Tadasunomori, every morning I hear lots of birds chirping and singing. Birds have always been familiar to me. And suddenly I had this idea that this deserves to be celebrated. That is why I took the photo of my work with a glass with some Japanese saké.

3月後半の七十二候の名称です。私の家は糺の森のすぐ近くなので、毎朝鳥たちの囀りが聞こえます。鳥というのは、ずっと身近な存在でした。それでふと、きっとこれはめでたいのだと思って、お酒を入れたグラスと一緒に写真を撮りました。

〜Sailing to the island 巨いなる湖〜
Today marks the vernal equinox day, and I read somewhere that visiting Chikubushima Island on this day would bring you lots of good fortune. And so, I paid a formal visit to the island and the shrines located there.

数週間前に届いたたくさんのガーベラ。今は写真のように飾っています。長い間楽しませてもらいました。ガーベラの中国名（大丁草）といくつかの花言葉を書きました。色によって、いくつもの花言葉があるようですが、ここに書いた『光に満ちた』『神秘』『希望』『前進』は一般的なもののようです。
