洗濯物を干していると聞きなれぬ囀ずり？下の垣根の中をメジロらしきがチョロチョロと枝を伝っていた。
囀やどんな鳥かとみな仰ぎ(深見けんじ)
曇天・微風の中を午後の散歩をいたした。図書館コースにして都住の猫に愛想を振りまく。タキシード猫だったのでいつもの奴かと思ったら違った。いつもの奴が後から現れたが猫の仁義か強弱か遠巻きにして近寄らない。

都住の辺りには少なくとも４匹の猫がいるが、飼い猫は１匹だ。あとは半野良というか、外飼いの猫と云うか、そんな猫のようだ。家の中には入れないが餌は置いてあげる、という付き合い方だ。

On a previous show, we poke to Professor Sandre Knapp, who is a farm researcher at the Natural History Museum in London. We asked her how we managed to tame wild plants into modern crops and vegetables.
0216
So we think about animals ???(1)??? domestic animals like a cow, or a pig, or, you know, a horse, domestic animals. But those animals are derived from wild animals, and the exact same process works for plants. ???(2)??? the domestic plants we have, we call them cultivated plants as oppose to domestic we tend to use both two words as consilient. They are plants that we vent our purposes so we've changed to be something different than they were in the wild.
0245
It's by domestically plants over generations, we produced modern crops we farm today.
0252
If taking something you like, and grow it on, and let get it, reproduce and growing those progeny and seedlings growing, and selecting one you like best and on and on, through generations, and generation time is fast.
Domestication or something looks quite different to what it was started can happen very quickly.
0312
I think probably the most extraordinary demonstration of the power of domestication and the power of plant breeding I've ever saw was at the Max Plank Institute in Cologne, which is Max Plank Institute for plant breeding, and they have garden there, and they have square meter of wheat. from wild, wild ancestor wheat, through all the different kinds wheats. All you would see
???(3)??? all different kinds, heights and different ear sizes and all kind of things. And through these meter squares, you got something that ???(4)??? carpet, absolutely uniform and that plant breeding that we have done.
