Tsugaike Nature Park / Cloudy2017.Aug.04
At the 7:00 a.m, the sky was covered with thin clouds, but we could see blue sometimes. The first ropeway was almost full with people and the nature park got crowded from 9:00 a.m. The flowers in Mizubasho and Watasuge Marsh were shining with dew in the sunlight.

During the trails between marshes, Gozentachibana, Maizurusou and Karamatsusou were blooming. On the way to Tenbou Marsh from Mousen-ike Pond, I found small cute flowers of Miyamautsubosumire (Photo). This flower has variations in its color from pale purple to white because of the area and elevation.

As the sunlight was cast longer, it got hotter and hotter. However, the refreshing wind cooled me down comfortably. In the south face, there were Oobagiboushi, Iwaougi, Yamahahako, Shimotsukesou and Hakusanominaeshi.

Besides, there was Miyamahotsutsuji with characteristic petals like a nose of an elephant in the forest near Mousen-ike Pond. It looks like just grass, but it will change its color into red in Autumn.

Now, it is the summer vacation season, so I met a lot of elementary school students. Some of them played with water in Kusu-gawa River. I heard their cheerful voices, excited with the cold melting water.
