” Aegithalos caudatus”
They live in the park where many tree grows to pass the winter.
After passing the winter they breed same place in the beginning of spring.
From April to June they lay an egg, and protect eggs in their nest for half months.
We can meet a baby in April at the earliest.
But we could find fledged chicks in the deep forest.
Fortunately we found a just fledged chick.
We found about 10 chicks.
Look at this picture, they bend their body.
It looks like drying their far heading the sun.
After fledged, they live with some family group.
June 13th Mt.Kurodake snow report
(I fell over a little around the top of Mt.Kurodake.
I am used to walk on snow, but I was careless and ended up causing a big problem.
So I missed my camera. I didn’t take pictures.)
Much snow still remains on the trail to Mt.Kurodake.
We can find 9th and 8th sign poles.
Day by day snow is melting.
Around 9th station branches grows from snow. There are many big deep holes under the snow. When stepping on snow, be careful! You may fall into a hole.
And more around just below the summit you might slip over.
Please be careful to walk preparing your climbing gear.
We don’t recommend a people who are not used to walk on snow.
It depends on weather, please bring crampons and an ice ax at least.
In this time “going up” is easy, but “going down” is too hard.
If you feel anxious to walk, please have courage to turn back.
