It was surprisingly cool on the top. The butterfly I came to see was a no show, but other things, the yellow flowers and the great Stag beetle made up for that.
Miyama Stag beetle, ミヤマクワガタ Lucanus maculifemoratus
A boy captured it, but let it go after a few minutes. We could have a good look.
A flower lady kindly took me to a valley where I would never have gone by myself. After the rain the going was tough, but I managed!
Onikonasubi, オニコナスビ Lysimachia tashiroi Makino
Yellow sparks in a very dark forest. It was just the right time!
There are no things like rivers or swamps on the ridge of a mountain like Mt Sefuri. Yet these plants seemed healthy to me.
Round-leaved Sundew, モウセンゴケ Drosera rotundifolia
Small cicada with distinctive markings: Ezo Cicada, エゾゼミ Lyristes japonicus
The only butterly worth mentioning: Satsumashijimi, サツマシジミ Udara albocaerulea
Murasaki Shikibu, ムラサキシキブ
Akushiba, アクシバ Vaccinium japonicum
Japanese five-lined Skink, ニホントカゲ
