モズの高鳴き(募集)
多摩市生きもの調査隊の皆様
まだまだ残暑が厳しいですがセミも大分おとなしくなり、秋っぽくなってきました。
さて、秋の訪れを感じる自然の一つに、「モズの高鳴き」があります。
普通、鳥は繁殖期の春から夏にかけて、オスがメスを呼ぶために、またはなわばりを宣言するためにさえずります。
モズは、逆に子育てが終わって秋になると、オスもメスも別々のなわばりを構え、そのなわばりを宣言するために、そのためオスもメスも両方、秋にさえずります。
それが、特別に高鳴きと呼ばれています。
アンテナの上など高いところに止まって、けたたましく「ギュンギュンキーキーキー」などと独特の声で鳴いているのでわかりやすいと思います。
多摩川のあたりでは数日前から良く聞かれるようになりました。皆さんのご近所でも鳴いていないでしょうか。

Today was a really nice day out and I wanted to get outside so I decided to harvest this beautiful plant. I have only ever known it by its Inupiaq name which is ayuu but it also has a Lingit name which is s’ikshaldeen. I have also heard it be called Hudson Bay tea or Labrador tea. I found it on the path behind housing here in Juneau.
This plant has dark green colored leathery, narrow leaves that tuck under at the edges. It also has dense orangish- brown hairs on the underside of...
Calling Cicadas
Trying to find the cicada in the tree to make a decent observation has always been non-productive. I know it's there but we play hide and seek around the branch. I finally realized that I should record the cicada - count how many seconds before it starts singing again - and then playback my recording just a second or two before the cicada starts to sing another stanza. It will immediately crawl to the tip of the branch it's on to challenge the newcomer in plain sight! Photo challe...

Dissecting Arion ater in order to determine subspecies.
Currently subjects are anesthetized in 5% iso alcohol solution until unresponsive, euthanized in 91% iso alcohol, then dissected and photographed in water. Reproductive systems are preserved in ~80% iso alcohol after photographing. Isopropyl alcohol is used due to availability and cost.

Common Greenshield Lichen
From a distance it looks like spray paint, but up close it's a sculpture garden. Definitely one of my favorite lichens, even if it is common. On the trees in my neighborhood, it lives side by side comfortably with a dark green moss I haven't identified yet. The moss is in the upper right of the picture. Any guesses? What is the relationship here, that they grow side by side so often? Or do they both just thrive in the same environment?
