Bamboo success...

After the last few disastrous seasons for our bamboo forest, we've managed to protect a number of the new growths, and some of the faster ones have now started to shed their furry outer layers. This is a good sign, as it shows the new growth is well on it's way to their maximum height.

The hard woody exterior is now also less attractive to the pesky monkeys, and also more resilient to the winds.

竹にはフシがある。 そのフシがあるからこそ 竹は雪にも負けない強さを 持つのだ

Bamboo has its own peculiarities. It is precisely because of these qualities Bamboo has the strength to withstand the snow even in the snow.

Very interesting name today! 竹腰 is usually read Takekoshi, sometimes Takegoshi.

竹 is read たけor チク, and it means bamboo.

腰, as you might have guessed from 月 meat moon, is a body part: hip, waist, or loins. (Anecdotally, I've also frequently heard it used when I'd say lower back or butt, but I don't know if that's a English-Japanese thing or a me thing.) It's read こし or ヨウ, the latter of which it gets from its right-hand radical 要, meaning necessary.

So....... this name means bamboo hip. Maybe that's like having a hollow leg that you can keep booze in? Actually they do serve sake in bamboo sometimes.
