In the past, I was in charge of tree education for the Regional Revitalization Cooperation Volunteers. Board of Education, together with Mr. Takada, who served as a forest curator I've been taking a walk around Nishiokoppe Shrine! Since the bear infestation Information came out last Spring I didn't have a chance to enter the Miya Forest. The snow is completely gone. While the grass is growing vigorously Spring blooms in white flowers as I walked. With the pocket zukan given by the instructor Mr. Takada in one hand Look for your feet or look up to observe the trees. If you listen, between the rustling of leaves You can hear the birds singing. From various people in the village I have the opportunity to learn the names of flowers and Sansai. It is difficult to remember the Traditional Japanese straw raincoat. Little by little, while comparing the photo and the real thing Sometimes you eat, smell the scent, and use your five senses. I hope I can remember it. I also like to take walks by myself. It's fun to walk with a few people while listening to someone's voice!
