Katakuri flowers have started to bloom in the mountain field!
春の妖精とも呼ばれる儚き早春植物(Spring Ephemeral)の代表格であるカタクリの花が咲き始めました。
今日咲き始めたばかりなので妖精たちのおしゃべりで賑やかになるにはもう少し時間がかかりそうです。
さらには、木の花も次々に咲き始めました。
嬉しいことに、山野草愛好家としては暫くの間は忙しくなりそうです。(^^)
The flowers of katakuri, a representative of the ephemeral spring plants (Spring Ephemeral) that are also called spring fairies, have started to bloom.
They just started blooming today, so it will take a little more time for them to become lively with the fairies’ chatter.
Furthermore, the flowers of the trees have also started to bloom one after another.
As a lover of wildflowers, I’m happy to say that I’ll be busy for a while. :-)

あとがき|Wrap-Up
今日はたまたまですが、カタクリの花の最初の一輪が咲くのを観察することができました
開き始めから完全に開き切るまで1時間ほどかかりました。
カタクリの花を撮影するためにこのフィールドに通うようになって7年ほどになりますが、カタクリの花の一番花の開花に立ち会えたのは初めての経験でした。
ラッキーでした。
Today I was lucky enough to observe the first flower of katakuri bloom.
It took about an hour from the start of opening to fully open.
I have been coming to this field to take pictures of katakuri flowers for about seven years, but this was the first time I witnessed the first flower of katakuri bloom.
I was lucky.
