A Japanese waxwing flew down on the ground and grabbed the fruit of dwarf lilyturf with the bill and swallowed.
ヒレンジャクはつまんだ実を舌で味を確かめた後で飲み込んでいるようだ。
The Japanese waxwing seems to be swallowing the pinched fruit after checking the taste with the tongue.

最初野鳥園に行ったがヒレンジャクはいなかったのでピクニックの森の方向に歩いていくと生涯スポーツエリア付近で沢山の方々が カメラを構えていた。近距離の木の枝にヒレンジャクが3羽止まっていた。ここでヒレンジャクは地上に降りてジャノヒゲの果実を食べていた。 おなかを見るとずいぶん食べたようだね、だからかなり近寄っても飛び出さないのかな。
I went to the wild bird garden first, but there was no Japanese waxwing, so I walked to the picnic forest. Many people were setting camera near the general spots area. There were three Japanese waxwings perched on the branch of a tree at a short distance. Here the Japanese waxwing flew down on the ground and was eating the fruit of dwarf lilyturf. Looking at the stomach, it seems that the Japanese waxwing ate too much, and then the bird did not fly even if people got close.
