Feathering Watching of Cicada <Tsukuda Park>

[Sam] August 11, 2013 09:00

R0021275LS.JPGR0021269RSG.JPG The kaempfer cicada, which tells the end of the rainy season, the "Cicada Time Rain" of Minminzemi and Abrazemi at the height of summer, and the squeal of Tsukutsukuboshi and cicada in late summer give you a sense of the changing seasons.

There is no age of pupa in the cicada of incomplete transformation. The appearance of the end-of-life larvae coming out of the soil and moulting and transforming into an adult <Haka> can be seen here at Tsukuda Park from the sunset in summer to the middle of the night.

It is beautiful, dynamic, and mysterious as the center of the back breaks, pulls out one after another while warping the body, and finally gradually stretches the pale wings. (Refer to the photo below)

In the case of Abrazemi, it is generally said that adults that have emerged about 4 to 7 years from their eggs and end their lives in a few weeks.

It matures a few days after its emergence, and pods pods and calls pods. After mating, the spawning tubes are inserted into dead branches and raw trees (trenges) to lay eggs. It is said that it is characterized by jigzag-shaped spawning marks.

I hear that the hatched larva falls in the air and dive in the soil.

Every year, "Motsu stew" of "Kitsuneya", which has a store outside Tsukiji, is always received.
The beef motsu and konjac cooked softly in Hatcho Miso are very delicious.

In our home, "Torito", which is often used, is also open.
The Noryo Bon Dance Festival, where many delicious things from Tsukiji gather, is held.
It will be held until August 3rd (Sat).
