Little bits from the west

During the walk, while gazing over the fields, skimming the trees, looking for anything that flies, a female Pheasant suddenly came running right beside us and continued to stride towards the woods in a cool and calculated manner.

Female Japanese Green Pheasant, キジ



A Hawfinch, シメ perched on top of the highest trees - again



The flowerbuds were all there, but didn't open up until the next day.
アマナ Amana edulis



There is a Shrike that loves to perch on the Scarecrow
Bull-headed Shrike, モズ





...and loves his girl



Butterflies appeared later in the day, warmed by the sun. 
Holly Blue, ルリシジミ



Peacock Pansy, タテハモドキ



Old World Swallowtail, キアゲ ハ



Asian Swallowtail, ナミアゲハ


At last, the first Tree frog of the season. Japanese Tree Frog, ニホンアマガエル
