At the beginning of the Žolinė weekend, I met J. Janušauskiene on the Vilnius-Druskininkai road, between Merkinė and the bridge over Merkis. The woman had just placed jars of fresh blueberries and morning squirrels on the hood of the car. He said I woke up this morning later than usual, only at 5am, that and the catch is not impressive. But half the bucket of robust young boletus still managed to collect.
“I told them that this summer will be very different from last year, and it really is very different in everything. When did you see that there would already be fog in July? There were no days in Dzūkija this summer when it would rain from morning to afternoon and not even the sky would shine. After Herbal Summer you will not say goodbye at all, there will still be a few beautiful days. Approximately August 20. the birds should be sailing and getting ready to fly, but last year it happened only in mid-September, ”said J. Janušauskienė.
When asked which birds he observed most closely, Marcinkonis mentioned winches first, trying not to fail when they fly and when they return.
“It is still very important when the stork flies off and when it comes back, the cuckoo cooks. It happens that she, as people say, “turns into a hawk” and starts vomiting instead of cooking. It is necessary to pay attention to all this, and also to the waters, when the water of the lakes and rivers darkens in autumn ”, Janina opened.
According to her, the sun will shine again after the grass and the sun will shine again. This year the traditional Lithuanian autumn awaits us, September will be as it should be, we will understand that we do not live in Africa. We live in Lithuania, where it rains. July of this year was very different from June, August; starting in July, this and September will be unique, with morning fog and cool nights.

“The beautiful green birch leaves and brightness tell me that there will still be sunny days in September, especially up to 20 days. At the beginning of September, on sunny days, the weather can still warm up to 25 degrees, starting at 10 pm – only until the 20th. Oak and July claim that October will be darker. In September, it is not worth waiting for heavy frosts, if the grass wears out some mornings, it is only for a short time, ”said J. Janušauskienė.
The most important thing for the Dzuks district of Varėna is that there is sufficient humidity and the mushrooms sprout on the last weekend of September, when the Lithuanian Mushroom Festival and Mushroom Championship are organized. The mayor of the Algis Kašėta district even urges the people of Varėna to get vaccinated, remembering that only then can we prevent the cancellation of the Mushroom Festival. When asked if the germination of the boletus will not end during the Mushroom Festival, or if there will be enough humidity and heat for them, Janina de Marcinkon assures that it is not worth worrying: September weather will be favorable for mushrooms and the forests will. Be generous.
J. Janušauskienė also mentioned the upcoming winter. She is sure it will be cold, but certainly not all winter long. The seasons will not change exactly according to the calendar, so according to Janina, we can start to wait for the real start of winter not in early December, but at the end.
A woman born and raised on a single farm in the village of Grybaulia, in a family of 11 children, said that she had been grazing cows in the forest since she was 3 years old. As a child, he began to observe the signs of nature and learned to understand what they meant. Then he began to take notes when the earth descended after the frost, when the lights bloomed, when the blueberry first, when the anthill woke up. Janina’s father had God’s gift to understand the signs of nature, but she was also gifted with this ability, only she was in no rush to reveal all the secrets of nature to everyone.
