Hamarikyu Garden Bird Observation Party

[Sam] December 13, 2018 09:00

DSC08067ELSR'.jpgDSC08072RS'G.jpg On December 9, a bird watching event hosted by the bird watching Club in Chuo-ku (co-hosted by the Chuo-ku Regional Home Education Promotion Council) was held at Hamarikyu Garden. 9:30~11:30

The number of participants was over 70 more than expected.

After gathering at the entrance of the main gate (Ote-mon gate), guided by members of the bird watching Club in Chuo-ku, we enjoyed bird watching while strolling along the route between Uchibori, Outdoor Table Square, Shinsenza Kamoba, Shioiri-no-ike Pond, Yokobori-Koshindo Kamoba and Hanakien.

It is said that there are fewer bird species than usual, but this time we met Tobi, Hakusekirei, brown-eared bulbul, Japanese white-eye, daurian redstart. common sandpiper, Yurikamome, Indian spot-billed duck, Ooban, little egret, grey heron, Kawau, Hoshihajiro, tufted duck, northern shoveler, mallard, northern pintail, green-winged teal.

Some say that the number of Tobi and seagull observed in the park has decreased since the relocation of the Tsukiji Market, but it is a valuable oasis where you can enjoy nature by contacting many wild birds nearby.

Yakimoya-san from Ginza Six Soba

[kimitaku] December 12, 2018 14:00


At dusk, walk along Ginza Street. I came to the intersection of Ginza Six.

Unlike the daytime, this day became very cold in the evening and I missed gloves.

Ginza Six's "Fendi" silver glass is dazzling and seems to be inhaled.

 When I try to cross the pedestrian crossing, there is a red lantern ...

・・・ A baked sweet potato shop was open. ・・・

A red lantern contrasting with the silver-colored building glass.

I was invited by the word "baked sweet potato".

The women were cheeking the potatoes in steam.

To get to Ginza Six (G6), get off at Ginza Station and walk 2 minutes.

It is a 5-minute walk from Toei Subway Higashi-Ginza Station.

They seem to be opening a shop occasionally.

Akatsuki Park in Shiwasu

The autumn leaves of "living fossils" metasequoia at Akatsuki Park are wonderful.

meta201802.JPG

The reason why it is called "living fossils" is that in 1941, fossil scholar Shigeru Miki used fossils from Japan as a standard specimen and founded the Metasequoia genus as a new genus of the cedar family. It was estimated that the plant in the genus metasequoia was extinct at that time in Sichuan Province, China, in 1946, it was said that it was a metasequoia was a metasequoia.

meta201803.JPG

Metasequoia is deciduous tree, which turns reddish brown before it leaves fall.

meta201804.JPG

Metasequoia in Akatsuki Park is so dense that it is written as "Measequoia Forest", so it is very powerful.

meta201805.JPG

I didn't notice until last year, but methasequoia fruit was produced.

meta201807.JPG

It seems that the Japanese name of Metasequoia is Akebono cedar, and is it related to Akebono cedar in Akatsuki Park?

[Ginza 5-chome] Thai-born natural skin care "THANN"

[Ino-chan] December 12, 2018 09:00

 

This time, I would like to introduce Thai natural skin care brand THANN.

 

It is one of the world's leading tourist destinations, which is always ranked high as a popular destination.

I think Thailand has a variety of images that each person can think of.

Surprisingly unknown are Thai-born cosmetics.

In Thailand, which has the aspect of an agricultural power and beauty power, there are a number of things that use natural materials.

The quality skincare brand has been born.

The "Jewel box of light" created by the photo sharing app is a hot topic.

 

THANN, which makes full use of the blessings of plant-derived ingredients in all products.

One. A collection that incorporates ingredients such as "basil" and "rice" is synonymous.

THANN's brand philosophy is closely related to the sensibilities of our Japanese people.

 

Adopted as a bus amenity at resort hotels and airlines around the world, including Asia.

THANN is being done. Some people may have already met somewhere.

I can't do it. I'm completely fascinated by the fact that I used it at a hotel where I once stayed.

After that, when I went to Thailand, I never forget to buy and return home, but now I am

You can get it at any time in Ginza.

 

I came to Tokyu Plaza Ginza.

Oriental essence is a blend of lemongrasss and chafilim native to Thailand.

Refreshing scent. Aromatic wood, which is a signature of THANN, has been used.

Hand care with warm fragrance added to the sweetness of citrus and spicy accents.

There is a full line that includes it.

In addition, the lineup of fragrances includes elegant and romantic Eden Bries and Susuki.
There are refreshing sea forms, etc., and everyone sees what suits the mood and taste of the day.
You can put it on. In addition, the products of THANN with minimal package design are also available.

Can be used by people of all ages, regardless of gender.
