Flora and fauna -June-

Though finally Met Office declared that Tokyo area got into rainy season, there has been less rain compared to normal season.
They say this is due to La Nina event which brings abnormal weather around the area.
Met Office will announce the rainy season will end soon and shorter than last year.
This seems to be good but I know that this means very hot, muggy weather will come.
That may also bring the shortage of water supply in Tokyo area.

The plant of the month:
Hydrangea. This plant bloom in this rainy season, changes the color of the flowers from pink to blue, purple under rain.







The bird of the month:
Blue-and-White Flycatcher(Cynoptila cyanomelana)
