Hamarikyu Onshi Garden Bird Observation

[Sam] 09:00 on December 13, 2018

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

There were more than 70 participants than expected.

After gathering at the entrance of the main gate (Ote-mon gate), members of the bird watching Club in Chuo-ku enjoyed bird watching while walking along the route of Uchibori, Outdoor Table Plaza, Shinsenza Kamoba, Shioiri Pond, Yokobori, Koshindo Kamoba, Hanagien Garden.

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

Some have heard that the number of Tobi and seagull observed in the park has decreased after the relocation of Tsukiji Market, but it is a valuable oasis where you can enjoy nature in close contact with many wild birds.

Ginza Six Soba Yakimoya-san

[kimitaku] 14:00 on December 12, 2018


Take a walk on Ginza Street at dusk. I came to the intersection of Ginza Six.

This day, unlike daytime, it became very cold in the evening, and I missed gloves.

It seems that the silver glass of "Fendi" of Ginza Six is dazzling and sucked in.

 When I tried to cross the pedestrian crossing, I saw a red lantern ...

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

A red lantern contrasts with the glass of a silver shining building.

I was invited by the word 'baked potato'.

The women were cheering the potatoes that stood in steam.

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

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

It seems that you are opening a store occasionally.

Akatsuki Park in Shiwasu

[The Minnie Cricket] 12:00 on December 12, 2018

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

meta201802.JPG

The reason why it is called "living fossils" is that in 1941, fossil scholar Shigeru Miki founded Metasequoia as a new genus of the cedar family, using fossils from Japan as a standard specimen, and this metasequoia plant was presumed to have been extinct at that time. However, in Sichuan, China, in 1946, a native species of metasequoia () was discovered in 1946.

meta201803.JPG

Metasequoia is deciduous tree and leaves reddish brown before falling leaves

meta201804.JPG

The metasequoia in Akatsuki Park is so dense that it is written as "metasequoia forest", so it is very powerful.

meta201805.JPG

I didn't realize it until last year, but I had metasequoia fruit.

meta201807.JPG

The Japanese name of metasequoia is Akebono cedar, and is it related to Akebono cedar in Akatsuki Park?

[Ginza 5-chome] Thai-born natural skincare “THANN”

[Inochan] 09:00 on December 12, 2018

 

This time, we introduce Thai natural skin care brand THANN (tan).

 

It is one of the leading tourist destinations in the world that is always ranked high as a popular destination.

I think that Thailand has various images that come to mind for each person.

Unexpectedly unknown are cosmetics born in Thailand.

In Thailand, which has the aspect of a great agricultural and beauty powers, several natural materials are used.

A high quality skin care brand has been born.

The "Jewel Box of Light" created by the photo sharing app is talked about.

 

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

One. A collection that incorporates ingredients such as shiso and rice has become synonymous.

THANN's brand philosophy is closely aligned with the sensitivity of our Japanese people.

 

Adopted as a bath amenities at resort hotels and airlines around the world, including Asia

Thann is done. Some of you may have already met somewhere.

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

After that, when I went to Thailand, I didn't forget to buy it and return home, but now

You can always get it in Ginza.

 

I came to Tokyu Plaza Ginza.
