Today on the way home from picking up my son I thought there was a fire in the mountains... and then we looked a little closer and realised that it was actually the cedar trees letting off a bit of steam... or pollen in huge quantities. I have been sneezing a bit lately and thought that the pollen season must be almost upon us... today's spectacle confirmed it. The tissue companies must love this season!!!!
OMG, that is insane!! perhaps what I think is 'kiri' is actually also pollen wars amongst cedar trees. I have never seen that kind of performance around here so heres to a sneeze free lunch tomorrow :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks really spectacular! I visited rural Japan (Near Okayama) as well, and did a hike hthough a forest in the mountains. But it was in fall, so I couldn't see something like this.
