on sunday fuji disappeared in the clouds but we enjoyed visiting chureito pagoda and arakura fuji sengen shrine, then the kawaguchiko music forest museum which has various musical automata like a gigantic self-playing organ and a cuckoo clock where a doll conducts a musical water show

later we went to ide brewery for a mini sake-tasting

mt tenjo is also called kachi kachi yama (crackle crackle mountain), famous in a fairy tale where a rabbit gets revenge on a tanuki for evil deeds against an old couple. there is a little "rabbit shrine" at the top

this past weekend i went to fujikawaguchiko with friends! rode the ropeway up the nearby mt tenjo & had a wonderful view of lake kawaguchi and mt. fuji (feat. autumnal silvergrass)

セスジスズメガの幼虫🐛 white-banded hunter hawk moth caterpillar spotted on my way home!
October 14, 2025 at 8:03 AM
these guys i can id though! 😤 they're larva of the butterfly シマグロヒョウモン, which apparently is indian frittilary in english

also, the big cosmos field in the park isn't open yet, but here are some cosmos from the kita senju earlier (feat butterfly in pic 4)

does anyone know what kind of caterpillar this is? there were many of them on this basil plant. at first i thought it was a hawk moth larva, but it didnt have the characteristic "horn", and i went to a bookstore and looked through a bugs picture encyclopedia but couldn't match it. what do u think
October 13, 2025 at 7:11 AM
i really love the magenta bracts on this plant. i see a lot of houses with them as decoration; i don't think they're wild here which is too bad bc you KNOW i wanna see if i could extract color from them

i'm searching & can't find reference to the shake version now so maybe the sign at the famima i saw was misleadingly designed (ie "we have these chips & this unrelated frappe" not "we have a frappe in this chip flavor") but the potato chip (well, potato "sticks") is this, jagariko bacon butter shoyu

there were of course spider lilies elsewhere around the park, just not in such a striking amount as on that one hill. msinly they were red, but some were the white/cream-colored kind

todays main event, the spider lily hill at mizumoto park! you could spot it from quite a distance, just a swathe of bright red. there were soooo many butterflies fluttering around all the flowers
September 28, 2025 at 3:40 AM
some kind of solanum, maybe sticky nightshade (solanum sisymbriifolium)? and some spider lilies hanging out with them for a spooky fall flower combo
September 28, 2025 at 3:38 AM
i got to watch this great egret from up close! so elegant. a bit further along the water was a pair of coots! i could see them clearly but not get a good picture

lastly, these aren't in the garden but a nearby park-- very cute ducks you can see everyone pets.
i have to go back to the garden sometime bc there's still a lot i didn't get around to yesterday!
