Hi everybody! Todays blog is free theme hehehe so I'll write about chilean birdwatching. A couple years ago I developt a passion for birds. It started, among other places, in Antumapu. In our faculty there are very much trees, they attract so many different birds, like the House wren ( Troglodytes aedon ), the Striped woodpecker ( Dryobates lignarius ) and the Harris's hawk ( Parabuteo unicinctus ). Birds are very beautyfull and entertained. Personally, they cautive me. I can spend many hours walking and searching birds. Also, I've had to be patient to watch some species that are difficult to see. Sometimes, I had relly beauty and awesome moments. The most recent was a week ago. I was in the "Santurario de la Naturaleza Quebrada de la Plata", resting on a grassland in a hill. Suddenly, I heard a strong buzz. I look back and it was a Black-chested buzzard-eagle ( Geranoaetus melanoleucus ) swooping against other bird at great velocity. I has never hearded some simi...

We did go to Lican-ray for about two weeks. In Lican-ray we enjoyed the Calafquen lake very much and it cristaline water. On it we spend so many hours, taking the sun, swimming and diving. Also, we did visit the Lican-ray's peninsula, wich have a beauty forest, althoug it have very exotic plants on it. In addition, we goes to some nearby places, like Villarrica and Coñaripe. In Villarrica we navigate on the Villarrica lake on a Catamaran. In Coñaripe we enojoyed the lake and its nice view.

Among them, the Chucao tapaculo ( Scelorchilus rubecula ), the Patagonian sierra finch ( Phrygilus patagonicus ), the Thor-tailed rayadito ( Aphrastura spinicauda ), the Dark-bellied Cinclodes ( Cinclodes patagonicus ) and the S...

Hello everyone, I hope you are well. In this blog I'll write about a country I would like to visit. This choice was not easy, but I think I managed to choose one. I would like to travel to Indonesia. I have never really researched in depth about this country, I only know that it has huge tropical rainforests which have many species of flora and fauna. Researching about the country I found that there are about 800 languages spoken there (one third of those spoken in the whole world). It is also a country with a large population and ranks as the third country with the highest carbon dioxide emissions due to deforestation.  Among the most striking plants are the pitcher plants, these plants are carnivorous species shaped like a pitcher, in fact they inspire a pokémon but I do not remember its name. In Indonesia, there is also the plant with the largest flower in the world, its name is Rafflesia arnoldii and it is a parasitic plant (it also inspires a pokémon hahahahah). Among its most...
