There's a small garden of bamboos in the back of the temple with a lot of carvings of visitor's names. It was windy and the bamboo made these creaking noise that sounded like the bamboo would crack and break. I got scared that I just took two quick shots and left.
These swans at the temple were very people friendly and didn't run away when you take their pictures.
I found one sitting on an egg in the bushes..
Even the cat was people friendly and didn't mind you taking his/her photo.
The kois were sure hungry, even with all those people who bought food to feed them.
As we were leaving, Celia mentioned what we heard at the same lecture about taking a photo from a different perspective..so I took this shot from a higher vantage point as we were leaving the parking on our way out..

The black of the swan with her orange beak against the green grass background is just beauuuuutiful. By the way, one of my coworkers said that every second Saturday at the Byodo-In temple they have a tea ceremony. I've been wanting to go, but it seems I usually end up working every second Saturday.
jalna, it's a really nice and peaceful place.. except when the bus load of tourists showed up and they all decided to ring the bell...
