Quo, May 2011 cover


Cave Castañar de Ibor, one of the candidates for the Eco-English jewelry ...


The cave speleothems Castañar are unique for their crystallization.

May In this issue of the journal Quo, I have the pleasure of publishing an article on deconocidas jewels of the English nature, hope you like, you find at the nearest newsstand.

"the Iberian peninsula and islands make up one of the richest natural settings in Europe, geography, climate and insularity make our country a haven of unique landscapes and biodiversity worthy of admiration, why candidates choose as an example of that wealth is primarily a trade perverse, but being as objective as possible and after lengthy discussions with experts in different scientific disciplines (biologists, geologists, environmentalists ...) I can make the effort to select these little known gems to illustrate the article.

You'll notice quickly that I have omitted large and emblematic species, as known to all as lynx, imperial eagle, grizzly bear ... natural environments such as national parks and reserves, to make way for the unknown nature much more modest in appearance and popularity, but it really represents close to that biodiversity is about to disappear, many of them at imminent risk ."...

Over more than twenty years the chosen bird by SEO / BirdLife symbolized some of the most significant threats and tear on our birds. Grouse, bustards, the imperial eagle and the black vulture have been some of the highlights. Their goal every year has been to draw attention to the delicate situation that is each of these species and their habitats.

This year, for the first time, has been elected as a predatory nocturnal bird of the Year. The European owl (Athene noctua ) thus becomes the protagonist of this species year attention on their conservation status, threats it presents and how everyone can help to improve their populations.

This time the owl calls the eyes of everyone, but especially the rural since its decline, more than 40% in the last decade in Spain, is caused mainly by changes in agriculture. Currently it is estimated that around 50,000 owls in our country.

For many years, the owl has benefited from human activities in the agricultural sector and as a result their populations increased significantly.

The owl was and is one of the best allies of the farmer , and fighting pests rodents and locusts naturally and without the cost involved in the use of chemicals. They have a great deserving of this award.

Aunque una de las que más me gusto es la que esta emplazada en el Parque Nacional de Cabañeros, en un nido de Águila imperial ibérica, encender los altavoces, pues además de una buena imagen se escucha el sonido ambiente con gran claridad, fijaos en la algarabía de pajarillos que "se quejan" cuando una de las grandes aves despega del nido a buscar ramas para tapizarlo en estas fechas primaverales.

Espero que las disfrutéis, para ilustrar esta entrada añado un dibujo que realice a tinta de una pareja de Imperial chickens and a watercolor of peregrine falcons.
