Stone lantern at the Buddhist temple Gōtokuji, Tokyo. The stone lantern is called a tōrō (灯籠). This particular style of pedestal lantern is known as a kasuga-dōrō (春日灯籠), and is one of the most common types found in Japan.
For most tourists Gōtokuji is quite a bit off compared to other famous sites in Tokyo - but it is still quite popular. After all they maintain the story of being the place that invented the beckoning cat - said to be inspired by a story of a monk's cat which saved the daimyo Ii Naotaka (1590-1659) from being hit by lightning by beckoning him into the temple.
But this temple is worth a visit for more than that (and I am saying this as a great cat lover). It is the largest historical site in Tokyo (according to the sign at the entrance - and I have no reason to doubt it). A temple has stood here since 1480, and Gōtokuji dates to 1655, with many of its existing buildings dating from the 17th century. The grounds are extensive and includes a cemetery for the Ii-family with traditional tombs. So that an Ii-family member was saved at this particular temple, according to the legend, might not be so very surprising since they obviously had strong ties to it.

Japanese white-eye;
The warbling white-eye (Zosterops japonicus), also known as the Japanese white-eye and mountain white-eye, is a small passerine bird in the white-eye family. The specific epithet is occasionally written japonica, but this is incorrect due to the gender of the genus. Its native range includes much of East Asia, including the Russian Far East, Japan, Indonesia, Korea, and the Philippines. It has been intentionally introduced to other parts of the world as a pet and as pest control, with mixed results. As one of the native species of the Japanese islands, it has been depicted in Japanese art on numerous occasions, and historically was kept as a cage bird. These birds introduced to California early in the 1980s at Southern California.
Today, we called this bird Swinhoe's White-eye. You can not find Japanese White-eye on ebird. They might change to Cali-white-eye next.
