A blog made with pictures, broken English and my vague "castellano" language.

Thanks Brian Hua for pushing me to make this blog. Work hard Brian...

This little mountain (about 10.000 Ha, 25.000 acres) call Sierra de Carrascoy, is where I grew up. How can you place the mountain in the world, HERE. My father used to work in a big farm on this mountain, so I had the chance to explore what was going on in these hillsides.


Este blog lo actualizo según la vida (trabajo, familia, etc...) me va dejando tiempo, por tanto irregularmente.

4 CRIAS BIEN CUIDADADAS or WELCOME FAMILY

(Broken English) Hi everyone, this is how look like four young little owl (Athene noctua) at its private home some day like today, June 17th, 2012. This family used to live in a small and centenarian olive tree field, but...it does not exit anymore. They moved to this house in ruins, and today, while driving home, what a surprise, they breed successfully.  Little things that make me happy.

(Spanish) La parejita de mochuelos que criaban en unos viejos olivos se movio a una vieja casa (los olivos ya no estan). Hoy, con la familia ya en el coche y de vuelta a la gran ciudad, hacemos el recorrido de siempre hasta llegar a la carretera... el alcaudon esta en su sitio, 5 liebres, ninguna porputa, y ... espera... marcha atras... movimiento raro en el tejado de la vieja casa en ruinas...prismaticos Carmen... Ole!!!, 4 mochuelicos de una tacada, ole esos padres!!!! 
Nada, esas pequenas cosas que decoran un domingo.

"BEAUTIFUL" AGRICULTURE?

A example of how some farmers destroy our fertile lands. I think there should be other ways to produce food.

Si, no solo de pájaros vive el hombre. Aquí se muestra lo bien que ciertos empresarios-agricultores destruyen nuestra tierra, en concreto el Valle Guadalentin, Murcia. Bueno, vale, la agricultura no tiene por qué ser bonita, o si, pero tampoco esto.
