Hello earthlings, yes, it is me again showing more of the beauty that inhabits this land, ours, the universal where there are no imaginary lines that man calls borders, other beings laugh at us at borders because for them the earth is earth and that's it!

Today I bring you this Alcaraván,
It is a very beautiful bird that inhabits this area, it is common to see it throughout the area, but closer to the lagoons, its song is somewhat noisy, or rather it is an alert when looking at the human, but this was somewhat blooming and left get close. I took the images in the lagoon, which by the way is already crying out for the rainy season to feed and grow.
In the following photo you can see a part of the lagoon and what appears there: some sticks embedded in the mud or bottom of the lagoon, it is a turtle trap, hunters have left them to catch some and then sell to people who They buy them, it is a kind of turtle that is called Galapago on these sides, it does not grow very large, but there I could look for about 15 trapped and around the trap about 40, when they saw me they fled. They were not going to say anything, but I destroyed the trap and released the turtles, I know they will put it back later, but at least released this time.

It is a fable that this bird can ward off bad vibes, but I think people think this because she sings whenever she senses danger, she does it to warn her companions of an intruder, it is a defense against predators, but the people over time led to this that it keeps away the bad, this was inspiration for some stories and songs, as you know this is the folklore of the area, since before many of these things that people invented to scare some and almost always spoke of the plain and this area which is the door to the Venezuelan plain as something mysterious with spirits and where supernatural things were seen, I have walked all over this mountain taking photos and I will not lie to them sometimes I have felt things that I did not They can be explained scientifically, but that is another story that I will tell you later.

In this little walk I show you the area a bit, but the protagonist is the most bullous bird in the area, the cararavan and its beautiful colors, with that pompadour that makes it look majestic, its black chest makes it attract attention , but he looked at me for a while and then said goodbye to me, with a race that in seconds took them to what I imagine, he thought it was a safe distance, I thanked him for posing for us and I retired taking the road On the way home, the truth is that I no longer perform as well as before, I get tired a bit easy, because I work sitting here all day and I'm fat, hahaha, I must return to training to see if I lower anything, but well, the season is coming of rains and it will be necessary to work harder on the land sowing, although it is not my usual job my grandfather was a grower and I know some things, and this year I am going to incursion more in the sowing, I will try to make a garden that produces for the house, there I will work more with physical effort , surely I take something the way of before, hahaha, but I will continue walking through all these lands in search of more protagonists to show them, that's for sure because I love to show the beings of this Aragueña land.

To finish, I leave you a photograph of the organized chaos of nature, this type of image fascinates me to take them and then see them on the screen, because they help us to meditate easily, they have something that makes me have that mystical feeling, I hope you like it and with it I dismissal for today.
