Blog experience

The blog looks like an entertaining page, allows me to write anecdotes and good memories of past trips, is also a way to express what you think about something, and to write about favorite places, animals, flowers, national parks and themes that are entertaining With the exception of the first blogs that were more boring.

It is a page that allows you to know a little more about other people, the option to comment on the publications of my colleagues seems very entertaining, but most of the time I forget to comment, but I still find it funny. One of the things I like about the blog is that you can post photos next to the texts. When we first started to take up the blog, I did not know that it was possible to do that and when I found out it started to interest me to write more about my personal experiences, especially about my trips, which make me very happy.

One of the things I do not like about the blog is that it is difficult for me to find the blogs of my colleagues, so I forget to comment on the publications, I do not know how to use the page better.

In order to have this blog is a new experience for me in terms of social pages since I only have facebook and whatsapp. But I like it.😏

Huemul

Huemul is a type of herbivorous deer native to Chile.

At present it can only be found in the sector of Nevados de Chillán (Bío-Bío Region) and from the Regions of Los Lagos to that of Magellan and Antarctica.

The huemul has a coat of dark brown color, mixed lightly with yellow, dense, thick, pneumatic (with air inside) and somewhat oily. This allows you to easily swim in the cold glacial waters of lakes, rivers, streams and also protects and shelters you from the harsh winter weather. It lives in mountainous areas, wooded and with abundance of bushes. In winter they prefer to stay in the most forested areas. Their diet is composed of grass, leaves and tree branches like colihue, ciruelillo, coihue, shrubs and others.

The huemul is one of the representatives of the national coat of arms and despite the great existence of projects for its conservation huemul is in serious danger of extinction because it suffered a considerable reduction in its population during the last century debibo to the indiscriminate hunting of the same, Animal-borne diseases, attacks by other animals such as dogs, introduction of non-native species, forest fires, adventure tourism and various human-induced alterations to the environment.

In 1996 it was declared Natural Monument by National Law 24.702, a category of management contemplated within the system of national parks of Argentina. 

Gaultheria mucronata

Chaura
It is a shrub native to southern Argentina and Chile, especially in mountainous areas, it is tolerant to extreme climates. Its white flowers are equipped with reproductive units of music and the fruit is a berry, almost globose, in the form of plum, which goes from white to pink and when it is ripe it is purple and has a delicious sweet taste. It can reach a meter with fifty centimeters of height and one meter with twenty centimeters of width.
This tree seems very nice and a good representative of the Chilean Patagonia, the first time this tree was in the volcano Villarica, one day there was a storm with a lot of wind and a rain that did not leave completely wet, and I came back again to see When we traveled to Patagonia with some friends, and in futaleufù surprised us with their rich fruits, eat them many times and we took a little hunger when we did not have food.
The chaura with the white fruit is my favorite, because in a sender of a glacier in a less expected place find this fruit to eat and enjoy the happy ones of the beautiful landscape.
