Other Nature News from this week:

The wind in Japan is so much stronger than it is back home in Greensboro. As a result, I have to carry a strong umbrella on rainy days. It can be quite embarassing to carry a weak umbrella when it rains in Japan, since the umbrella will keep flipping upside down or break.
