Happy New Year, New Year.
On January 2, after a New Year's visit to Yokohama, which also served as exorcism, it was about 15 minutes walk from Ginza Line/Shimbashi.
I went to the Hamarikyu Onshi Garden and saw the traditional falconry technique "Hoyojutsu".
This is the hawkba of the Edo period Shogun's family, and in the Meiji era, falconers lived to protect this tradition, and demonstrations of releasing this hawk were performed.
This is the 24th year, I think there were hundreds of spectators, including foreigners. It was a little cold because it was shaded by a pine tree.
-- It's a bit advertised, but it's an unusual garden that draws seawater from Tokyo Bay to Harumi (2020 Olympic Athlete Village), which looks right opposite.
It is also famous for having a pine of 300 years, and for having a white elephant from Vietnam lived for a while during the Yoshimune era.
(The explanation version of Hamarikyu is displayed large when clicked.)
In front of the main event, the sudden descent of northern goshawk, which descends from the roof of the 210-meter-high Dentsu Building.
It is a warm-up for hawk to get used to the surrounding environment.
It was sunny this day, but during the sudden descent of northern goshawk, a lot of dragonflies and crows gathered and got in the way.
And it was a smiley happening unique to nature that it was hard to return to the arm of the falconer (trusion struggle,).
At an event for the general public, a hawk flew several meters and rides on his arm! He said, "Hawk is lighter than he expected."
I feel like I can understand it.
The appearance of the hawk flying lightly in the wind in the sky is a male figure, Ichifuji, Nitaka, San eggplant, 2016, a good year!
Finally, the green field in this photo is canola flower, as a time to love nature, with the landscape full of yellow since February.
We recommend that you make time and visit.
