In the middle of last month, I asked my husband to drive the opposite side of the road from the one I posted the cherry blossom here (last two pictures). You can see the same little gazebo :-) I was happy to see the wide area with lotus flowers in the rice paddy. It sure was a reminiscent memories making wreaths with friends when little.
(hope you can see the long fence along with the gazebo)

 *Brown-eared bulbuls and Crows* 
Can anyone identify this bird? It was perching very far place, sorry for the bad focus.

I saw many crows were chasing the car p:-) A bit unfortunate that I missed the good timing they were more and close together. I guessed it was a farmer's car (going home) getting ready for the rice planting season.

ReplyDeleteInteresting fences and good photos of the birds!
ReplyDeleteHi Orchid, Love the view of the pretty flowers. You captured some great photos and the birds are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteNice fences too. Great shot of the crows following the car.
Have a nice day and weekend ahead.

Miyako, those flowers are so lovely, and nice to see the birds as well. I'm curious about the "wreaths you made as a child" with the lotus flowers. Have a wonderful day today, Hugs from Texas
ReplyDeletelove the shot of the 2 crows in the blooms. the brick wall and fence line are both nice backdrops for that rice paddy field! thanks for sharing your beauty, miyako!
ReplyDeleteThat field of lotus flowers is gorgeous! Love your photos of it.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely shots of the birds and blossoms.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful flowers with their tender color. The birds are very cute, but I don't know what they are called. Crows seem to be everywhere in the world!
ReplyDeleteThose Lotus flowers are so pretty. How wonderful to have an entire field of them to photograph.
ReplyDeleteSweet little bird perched on the fence post.
That was a cool shot of the crows and the car and of course the fence.
I always enjoy your wonderful photos.
LOVE the field of pink blossoms!
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous flowers! Love the contrast of the two crows against all that pink! The fence is great. And I love the other bird...the name is on the tip of my tongue. Hope someone comes up with it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your very sweet comments on my blog! I always enjoy reading what you have to say.
The paddy full of lotus flowers is really beautiful. Nice fence in the background. Crows are a bit intimidating but I love to see them. They are very intelligent.
ReplyDeleteLovely birds, Orchid. I wonder if that mystery bird is some kind of tit? It looks like one, although most of them do not have white throats.

It's a beautiful little bird; I'm glad someone else could help you because I am lucky to be able to identify the birds I actually see (I love the way bloggers help each other out.) And crows are obviously the same no matter what country. Loud and fearless -- and yes a bit scary!
ReplyDeleteThe lotus blossoms are beautiful; such a great color. And I do so enjoy it when you share your childhood memories.
very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos- you always find the beauty through your lens. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are beautifl. How pretty their pink color is! Love the photo of crows - they may be enjoying pretty flowers.
ReplyDeleteAnd the last photo is amazing! Chasing tractor is one thing, but it's funny they are chasing the car :-)
4月末に日本に一時帰国していました。やっと普段の生活リズムが戻ってきた感じです^^;
Have a happy weekend, Miyako san!
What beautiful photos you have taken. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteHello Miyako, thank you for linking up your beautiful birds and post. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. I think you mystery bird is a Long-tailed Shrike.
ReplyDeleteSuch a scenic view in the first photo. Love the collection of bird photos too - including the crow.
ReplyDeleteHello dear Miyako, I love the view of the field full of lotus flowers. The birds are pretty. Big sunny hugs to you!
ReplyDeleteHurrah for Adam Jones, I think he's got it.

Such pretty country!! And such an added plus of the bird life in your area. Beautiful photos. That last one of the crows 'chasing' the car is funny.
ReplyDeleteFantastic shots of the critters and flowers. Have a great week.
