He showed us a picture of Japanese plum tree in full bloom in his area a few days ago. The pale pink flowers were very attractive in this cold season.
The temperature in Osaka and Himeji are almost the same, I guess. Our plum tree hasn't bloomed yet. There are many buds in the tree, though.

During the blossom season, I see Japanese White Eye or Mejiro birds visit the tree to drink the sweet nectar of the flowers.
I don't know where they are coming from, but I see some of them when I go for a walk at the foot of the mountain in my neighborhood. They always hide in the trees.

I love taking care of birds as much as I enjoy watching them. I am the owner of three pet birds: one cockatiel and two budgerigars. I change their food every day and there are always some leftovers. Some might throw them away, but I keep them in the refrigerator for winter season because I pity the sparrows which visit our garden.
Today, I took some pictures while it was snowing. There were many sparrows with voracious appetite.
Every morning, I go for walk for exercise, but I found it very cold today.
I decided to stay home and read a book written by Kyoko Mori.
What Kyoko wrote in her book was something I can relate to.
I am keen to learn about things which trigger my interest.
