Masashi who gradually got into the job without disturbance afterwards and gave a refinement to his work, gradually became a reputation of the world, when he was 39 years old, he was awarded "Mr. Bunka 12 rasp and 7 rice seven ridges" from Munakata County, and when he was 58 years old , Kuroda lord owner was invited to Fukuoka castle as "Takako", and it got the honor that it is permitted to bear the family name "Takeshimaru" after "geological exemption". Since the Kuroda clan, which was requested by the shogunate for introducing a case example of "Takayuki" in various places, reported the results of this Masashi san's practice as a practical case of the clan representing "Takashi", the story of Shosuke Mori was Confucian morality It was published in the enlightenment letter "Takanaga" for establishment and became known all over the country.

There are no signs of activity of swallowtail butterflies even when the temperature rises. Fly actively, fly to lily flowers, suck honey and replenish energy. Why did you fly to Oni lily?A whipis.

Butterflies in August

When you go to Shin Tateyama climbing road, you will notice small small birds fly around in Sasa. When I looked closely at the leaves of Sasa, it seems that the pattern of the winged back studded black stone on a white ground. So thenGoshisimiIs called. This butterfly larva is carnivorous to eat aphids attached to Sasa. The adults also suck up the aphid liquid.
I will arrive at Shintoshan Mountaintop in about 40 minutes from Masayoshi Furusato starting from the village big parking lot. There is a kunugi forest next to the square under the top of the summit.

SwallowtailAlso visit.
Kibanakosmos are planted on the flower bed at the end of the large parking lot. Kibanakosmos is the favorite of butterflies. I took a place where a quail began to fly. This beakka is similar to Ageha on the top, but can you see the difference between them? I think you can understand by comparing the patterns of the wings.
On the flower bed there are planted sunbahn also outside of Kibanakosmos, and many butterflies gather there. What is most often seen during this periodIchimon dyseriis. Four white spots are lining up in a line. From this it was named Ichimonji (one letter) Seseli. At first glance it looks like a trick but it is an undisputed butterfly.

Butterfly in October

Many butterflies are still visiting the flower bed flowers.AcadathehaI came to Sengikki. Because this butterfly is an adult winter, I will take plenty of nutrition.
A little rare butterfly fly to the flower bed every October. SoutherlyTatehamodokiis.
Since I did not live in Fukuoka prefecture fifty years ago, I could not see it unless I went to Kagoshima Prefecture, it also went to the southern tip of Sato Cape. After that, it adapt to the environment and probably came northward. It is now established in Munakata district.
I was sleeping in summer.Female Growth Hormone(Female) will awake and come to the flower bed. The difference in the pattern of the wings of both sexes is great enough to think that it is different from the female of Female Growth Hormone introduced as a butterfly in June. Here is the reason why it was named female (female) glo (black) baioon (leopard).

November butterfly

Shosuke Furusato If you go down the road under Myoyu's house in the village headquarters for a while to Tateyama, you will find a guide to Fukushi Shrine on your left. Cycles are planted here and around itKuromadara Sautezu ShizimiYou will find.
This butterfly larvae eats hard leaves of cycads. Originally originated from the Philippines invaded Kyushu from around 2007, now it can be seen also in Fukuoka prefecture. However, because it can not be overwintered, every year it changes nationwide from the Nansei Islands and goes northward, reaching Munakata around September. Since we change generations about once after that, we can see it until around November. It is not necessarily northward every year. Because it does not go north in the cool summer year, it can not be seen in the Munakata district.
