Happy New Year. It's the beginning of 2010.
The three days of the New Year are blessed with the weather, and the third day is about to calm down now.
I didn't see the dreams of Ichifuji, Nitaka, and San eggplants, but visited Hamarikyu, where there were demonstrations of hawk and Aikido.
There was an exhibition of winter peony, and I was fascinated by its beauty.
Hoshihajiro (male) is playing in the Shioiri Pond.
Every time the waves were calm and the water surface swayed quietly, I enjoyed the changes in the pattern due to the blue of the sky and the greenery of the trees.
It is a place where a falconer releases a hawk in the demonstration of "falconry".
"Transfer" ... A hawk released by a hawk from a hawk 30-40m away flew by the ground and skyrocketed.
It stops on the left arm of another falconer.
He is a falconer who has a hot break with the hawk after the demonstration.
"Set up" ... Keep the hawk stable on the horizontal fist. It's the basis of all art.
"Watering" ... Return the hawk on the tree to the fist.
"Replacement" ... let the fuck stop by the fist of a person other than the falconer.
"Swing pigeon" ... A falconer shakes a pigeon with a thin string and calls a hawk from a tree or another falconer's fist.
Throw a pigeon near you and grab it in the air.
Hawk's costume has been using bird hats (hanging) underground tabi since the Meiji era.
The hawk is very delicate, and the demonstration while the building wind blows is surrounded by a large audience, I think that the hawkers are also having a great deal of trouble.
I thought that this traditional culture, which was handed down to Japan around the 4th century, had to be passed on to future generations.
