Rice stalks bow their heads 😌

The green rice plants are now bowing their heads as they ripen, signaling the arrival of autumn. They're turning yellow. When the neighborhood starts harvesting, it'll get noisy with machinery and dusty from the rice collection, but I hope it's a bountiful year for the farmers. Last week, 'new rice' was already on sale at the supermarket, so I bought some. As expected, freshly milled new rice is delicious~
