Take two, Monfrague National Park




This weekend I spent my second weekend in a row planting trees, this time in the beautiful national park of Monfrague, located about 1 hour north of where I live. Another weekend of meeting new people, eating lots of food and visiting several new places that I had never been to before. Our accommodation's were a large and cold pavilion, instead of nice stone cottages and there was a huge group of high school students that made sleeping almost impossible. Besides having a cold and getting almost no sleep it was another weekend that I will never forget. Ever heard of a black stork? Me neither, but I saw one this weekend and a scorpion too!!! If white storks bring babies, what does the rare black stork bring???












Watch out for these bad boys!!! This guy was only the size of my thumb.



















Just like a tree, I need water, food and sun to grow.
