Alcedo atthis

This little bird made my day! Home in the house where I grew up, my parents and me could catch a glimpse of this incredible beautiful bird!
I shouted LOOK THERE!
On a bridge in the garden he showed himself like two seconds and disappeared as fast as he came. Never saw the Kingfisher so close, in real live and between houses!!! Thank you little beauty!

Here his name in some languages...
English : Kingfisher

Latin : Alcedo Atthis

Dutch : Ijsvogel

Spanish : Martín Pescador
Do you know him in your language? Tell me ;)

Surviving / Sobrevivir

Thinking of some very kind souls I met one day in Chile...after all those years we lost contact. How are they these days...what's happening overthere...just thinking of them...that is my Chile.

Dadme el silencio, el agua, la esperanza.

Dadme la lucha, el hierro los volcanos.

Apegadme los cuerpos como imanes.
Acudid a mis venas a mi boca.

Hablas por mis palabras y mi sangre
