雨の盆とマスクラット

泳ぐマスクラット 幸手市神扇市営釣り堀付近の用水にて 2017/8/13

今年は腰痛のためお盆の下北へは行けなかった行かない連絡をしてからずっと涼しく夕方から夜にかけては雨になることも多い猛暑を覚悟していたのでその点ではありがたい

Nevertheless、腰痛でせっかくの涼しさを活かせない何となくゴロゴロし何となくパソコンでデスクワーク?坐りっ放しではいけないと自転車で散歩していたらまた例の「泳ぐ巨大ネズミ?」を見た

今回は少し詳しく調べてみるとどうも「マスクラット」という北米原産の沼地のネズミに間違いないようだ戦前パイロットの帽子用の毛皮を取るために養殖されていたが戦後需要が減って放たれたのが野生化し現在は東京神奈川埼玉千葉で繁殖しているらしい特定外来生物に指定されている

 

「丸ガニ」…

I ate "round crab" (produced in Miyagi prefecture)。It tastes nostalgic though、Is it a shame?、All of them are still young crabs.、The taste was also immature.。If you're alive、It's the size I want to miss.。

I recently wrote about "crab fishing" on my blog.、About this crab。In my house, it's called Hiragani (perhaps because its hind legs are flat).。Because the dimple on the back looks like an “H”、The kids even called me naughty crab on purpose.。

The bottom crab with its belly facing forward is the female.、The one above is male。Distinguish by the shape of the “lid” on the stomach。Although it is small, it is a sweet and delicious crab that is popular among locals.。I had no idea it was sold in Saitama.。Although I feel grateful、I felt a little bit of mixed emotions.。

 

I received sweetfish the other day、I drew about 10 pictures as I felt like it.。Depending on the angle you look at it, your back may look blue.、It looks brownish。Not limited to sweetfish、I think river fish are really delicate.、I think again。

Is it because vision and appetite are linked?、The one who is as fat as a tuna (probably obese) is better.、``Easier on the eyes'' than slim。Since elementary school、Since I didn't go out to catch sweetfish, I forgot how to tell the difference between male and female sweetfish.。this is female。You can tell just by looking at the pectoral fins.。
