The clock on the nature

I'll make a stop in entries over Scotland to dedicate this entry to areas dens, as ultimately is the goal of the blog. The human being has always been committed to quote it all, in measure, in order to express it in numbers ... I guess that pretend that everything is in order, makes us to relax. No But the clock of nature depends on many factors such as rainfall, climate, etc ... To give an example, the deer rutting always the case in late September and early October, but we can not say that day begins, because if the rains have been delayed a little bit more or if there is intermittent rainfall in early September the deer are "jealous" before. Everyone knows that the Fall officially begins September 23 at dawn, but according to the timing and nature watch the fall begins with the roars of male deer in the Cantabrian mountain.

The rut is a natural ritual that I have attended since I have memory. Had 6 years when he kicked the beech with "fleitas" hitting me in the chest and getting wet with morning dew. It is an event that has had a tourism boom in the last decade. I remember when we were in rut and we were not with anyone. Once a guard accompanied by hunters but little else. However, the explosion of "ecological consciousness" (in quotes because there is a real conscience, I wish I was) and assistance from ecologists increasingly asphalt to the mountains makes the rut and do not convey that sense of contact between yourself and the nature that was a few years ago.

This year I attended less than normal in the rut and yet it was the best year I have enjoyed and observed the typical rituals of behavior. In the rutting male deer are usually creating a harem females, females with calves and others. This harem they defend from other males and females mate with it. This year could see yet another lesser-known protocols. In the same number of males have been displayed in an area where a couple of females in heat. That is when these males are about the female, watercress and fight to win permission from the female and reproduce.

Deer Enceladus in the Cantabrian

is a period of great stress and physical exhaustion for males of this species and which often do not have time to eat as they should, having to remain constantly vigilant both to prevent other approaching males, to prevent them from leaving the females. When a female tries to get away from the male that the saves so that the female is forced to turn around and return to the harem.
When two males are too close to a female nearby, usually ends in a collision in which the males lower their heads and horns intertwine to produce a dry sound like the breaking of firewood in the forest. Usually be Small, but can sometimes take several minutes. Do not usually cause serious damage but no deaths in which a deer drives a luchadera in the opponent's body or head killing him. More standard injuries are cuts and a broken tip of the horns.

Deer Fight in the Cantabrian Mountains

not always get to the fight. What I usually do is pitch in male fern and scrub to show their strength when starting fragments thereof. Also have an important effect bawling, of course. But not only influences the intensity of the squall, but the timing, tone, high or low it is .. are a combination of factors makes females opt for one or the other males. Tenran must note that as you will make your belly and nutrition for babies during pregnancy and breastfeeding have to find a male qualities to offset that cost, to ensure in any way the success of the offspring.

Though not always a priori males are the ones who seem to have more offspring end up that way. There opportunistic males with less strength and qualities expected in the broom to spend some clueless female of the harem to copulate with her.
Most Photo of rutting are made of Mediterranean mountain areas as Cabañeros, high Tajo and similar places. However watch this show in the Cordillera with the feeling that at any moment you can see a bear or a wolf that has a special magic.

The rut

A curiosity is that I have heard deer watercress in July, an Asturian mountains. Therefore, the deer do not use this method exclusively for the zeal but may serve for something else.

Dispute between males and females

And when the rut takes its last legs when the yellow color palette and starts painting red the Cantabrian mountains leaving shocking images to our retina. In fact in most cases is not that new pigments in the leaves, but the green pigment (chlorophyll) degrade exposing the yellow and orange pigments (carotenoids) that call so much attention.

salamanders also with their black and yellow leaves adorn the floors of the northern forests, bringing its touch of color to the spectacle of autumn .

So we see that despite our calendars marked time in a way that we are more or less useful, nature takes its pace without guided by established rules and based only on itself. I hope you enjoyed the entry and greeting. Well

How To Extend And Otlet

For Scottish Highlands (4 º parte)

summer continued our journey through the lands of Scotland. The plan for today was to surround from Inverness Loch Ness Fort arriving in August and continue westward reaching the area of \u200b\u200bLochalsh and the Isle of Skye. We decided to surround the Loch Ness for its eastern edge as it is a road much less traveled and has a special charm. Was obligatory stop to photograph this freshwater lake which interior could they claim the entire human population. The signs of the mystery of "Nessie" (the monster) were continuous and made it one of the most famous and visited Scotland.



Loch Ness on the eastern edge of the lake is a town called Foyers, famous for its waterfalls. In this place we saw several squirrels and in the lower area near the town raged several pheasants on land so abundant in Britain. As you may know this species was brought from Asia about 500 AD. Subsequent introductions of a species from China have led to the appearance of different subspecies.

Here is a photo of the Falls of Foyers, for whose visit has enabled walkways running down a steep pine forest to reach the area in question.

Foyers Falls

continue around the Loch and at one point the road splits a little edge to lead us through the wilderness where we always had the hope of running into the red grouse but no luck. However, the vision of the landscape in the Scottish Highland always spectacular.

Moorlands

After reaching Fort August and take a look at the Caledonian Canal locks continue with the route heading north on the opposite shore of the lake until we found the turning leading to Kyle of Lochalsh. The scenery throughout the journey are still impressive and everything looks great. The broad glacial valleys, high mountains, wide rivers, etc ... It is difficult to share models reflect the same in a picture but I assure you that make your hair stand on end.

We finally Kyle of Lochalsh, an area where sits the famous Elian Donan Castle, which appears in the movie "Highlander" whose original title is " Highlander therefore inhabitant of the Highlands. It is one of the most visited Scotland for the photogenic and magical place.



Elian Donan Castle

Around the castle several groups of shorebirds feed the algae looked like a pair of herons that feed on small fish in ponds flats. It's a kind which clearly shows the difference in confidence, for several animals to humans based on the country where we are. The photographs were taken of this heron sitting 15 meters from the animal, without any camouflage and while she was hunting without worrying about our presence, something almost impossible in Spain and I suppose it is no coincidence since on this species continues to haunt the ghost they are one of the culprits as to diminish the pieces of fish in the rivers, when what are the licenses have increased, but that is another matter. For this reason keep coming herons shotgun in our country.

Heron ( Ardea cinerea )

Noting a very abundant deer in the distance with binoculars, we crossed the bridge which Lochalsh to the Isle of Skye. The Isle of Skye is a place whose landscapes are reminiscent of Iceland or remote areas of the tundra. But this island will discuss in detail in the next inning. For now the day of arrival we got to settle in Broadford and eat something. In Scotland as elsewhere in northern Europe abounds a subspecies of the carrion crow is Cinderella. It is characterized by gray tones in their plumage in the chest and back. Crows can be crossed with the subspecies nominated as there are different patterns of black and gray as the cross.



Cinderella Crow (Corvus corone Cornix )

The day was closing and it rained a lot, still decided to approach an area where we could see otters and make a short wait. No luck with the mustelid, yet several groups of harbor seals resting on rocks. We get so see the 2 most abundant pinniped species in the British Isles. We can see how some birds are moulting. One is tired of seeing these animals in documentaries but until you have them near you do not get an idea of \u200b\u200bthe tenderness that release, despite being carnivores, expert hunters at sea.



common seals (Phoca vitulina )

As you can see Scotland is a region that surprised every day with new species, new scenery, new people and stories to remember. I have an entry about the trip will be about the magic of the island of Skye. Hope you are enjoying the chronicles of the trip. A greeting and thanks for visiting the blog.

Sims 3 Get Rid Of Carpool

For Scottish Highlands (3 ª part )

After spending the night at Aviemore, a village near the nature park of the Cairngorms decided to spend the day following the species within the Scottish region. For this we turn first to the forest Abernethy, where breeding species like the capercaillie and black grouse. We did a little tour of the Caledonian pine forest but no luck with this species. It's funny Caledonian pine forest, one is accustomed to seeing the English pine reforestation and others in which there is no such advanced stages of ecological succession.

A pair of deer left to see the clear pads his hindquarters as he disappeared into the thicket. We were then taken to Loch Garten, one of the main points of breeding ospreys in Scotland. But we could see at a distance quite remote. A flock of Eurasian Wigeon landed in the lake before our eyes. Have enabled the observatory to watch the nest of the fishers, but it was too early and had not yet opened. Sin was pregnant at the entrance to a feeder which fed chickadees and finches. Even a red squirrel with all white tail foraged at that point.

Chaffinch ( Fringilia coelebs)

decided to leave the region with the feeling of having visited the lands of the Scots though roosters we had not seen. We undertake
towards the area of \u200b\u200bthe resort of the Cairngorms, where we look for species such as snow bunting and ptarmigan Alpine. Before we passed near Loch Morlich and forests before starting the ascent. We reached an area of \u200b\u200bmoorland dotted with pines, it seems the typical image of a documentary where black grouse perform their courtship. We stopped to take a look to see if we are lucky and hit a male grouse up around us, an amazing creature truth. His lyre-shaped tail as it flies and blue-black tones were recorded in the retina because it was so sudden that there was no time to photograph. But after a while the female stood up and this time if he was ready to throw a photograph even if testimonial.

Female Black Grouse (Tetrao tetrix )

Grouse Habitat on the shores of Loch Morlich

continue the climb to an altitude of around 1000 meters. We see a herd of deer in the distance and hitting the road. There is a sort of monorail that rises to the top of the ski, but do not let you leave the platform, but if you walk from the base can freely distracted by the "high mountain" in Scotland. The goal here was to photograph ptarmigans (or alpine ptarmigan). We follow a path and print begin to see the first signs (droppings, feathers, etc ...) continue rising and we see a couple of snow bunting in the distance perched on the rocks of a small crag. Too far away to photograph, but that's the point. After saving a gentle slope about 300 meters came to a crag on the banks of a small glacial lake. It should be beating with a thousand eyes and the ptarmigan go completely unnoticed by remaining motionless on the rocks (and had been found in the Catalan Pyrenees last summer.) Suddenly there are, on the rocks still. 2 units of time are starting to move very smoothly between the large stones that accumulate by the erosion of time. Is a species that really catches my attention because of its great adaptation to extreme conditions and for the confidence you have in your own camouflage.

Alpine Ptarmigan (Lagopus mutus millaisi )


Alpine Ptarmigan (Lagopus muta millaisi )

The subspecies that lives in Scotland is different from the Pyrenees. We were celebrating the sightings and pictures when derepente other 2 individuals were resting on the weathered rock. Even more confident than earlier rested quietly while a truce clouds and rays of sunlight filtered softly.

Ptarmigan

The dotterel also breeds in the area but not We were fortunate to see him as the mountain hare which had no option to watch. The love of Birdwatching in the UK is very popular and were a number of birdwatchers that we could find that day looking for Ptamirgan (name given to the alpine ptarmigan). It had been a day kicking quite so decided to take the road to Inverness. Today he had to do some miles on the car and thanked enough.
Before we turn to reach a large glacial valley in which we hope to see red grouse because of the abundance of heather and bog it presents. No luck with this species yet so we could photograph the abundant oyster beds that fed among cattle for worms. We also saw some whimbrel the area.

Eurasian Oystercatcher ( Heamatopus ostralegus)

Finally we come to Inverness, led the famous city of Rio Ness, where we would spend the night. This was all for today, in the next post will visit the shores of the famous Loch Ness and cross the Lochalsh to get to the island of Skye. I hope you enjoyed and thanks for visiting the blog. For
