今日は朝から夕方近くまで雨が降っていて、練馬区の最高気温は14℃、もう冬のような寒さでした。そこで、タイガのハウスの敷物を冬仕様に変更。明日の最高気温は更に低く13℃の予想です。
It has been raining for the last few days and it was particularly cold today, with the maximum temperature at 14℃. Even worse, the max. temp. for tomorrow is forecast at 13℃. So, I changed the floor covering of Taiga's cage to a winter blanket (Taiga looking like out of a hostage photo).
A palm civet has returned. It runs about over my roof at night and drops the young fruits from my passion fruit vine. Last night, it seems 2 fruits were dropped. The palm civet is not indigenous to Japan - the creature must have been someone's pet before.
落ちた実のそばには噛みちぎられた果皮が散らばっているので、実を落とした後も床で齧っていたようです。
The creacutre must have continued nibbling at the fruit on the floor, since there are pieces of the green skin near the fruit.
ツルにも1個、キズものが残っています。
Another bruised fruit on the vine.
