The image shows the Aldeadávila Dam, a massive concrete dam on the River Duero in Spain near the border with Portugal, stretching between steep, green mountain slopes. The curved dam wall, which holds back the green water of the reservoir, dominates the foreground. The water surface reflects the rocks and the wall. In the background, a winding road snakes up the opposite slope. 
The slopes are covered with lush green vegetation, which contrasts sharply with the grey rocks and concrete of the structure.

✨️ Much can be pent up, but when the pressure peaks, the dam finally breaks. ✨️

A Thekla's lark is perched on a rock covered in green lichen and is looking to the right. It has brown plumage and a white belly. Its short crest is standing upright.  The background is green with a bokeh effect

It's time for #SmallbirdSaturday

This little Thekla's lark is the one I’ve chosen. 🪶

It also has a few grey feathers which is why it’s also fits with #BirdofTheDay #Greyday 😁✌️

The image shows a vast natural landscape with a deep river valley in the Arribes del Duero Natural Park. You are looking down into the gorge from above. 
A few bushes can be seen in the foreground. However, the main focus is on the river winding its way through the valley. The strong contrast in the water is striking: the left side is light grey to ochre, while the right side appears deep blue. This is due to the play of shadows from the high rock faces. The two colours of water meet in a sharp, jagged line in the middle of the picture. 
The steep slopes of the valley are densely covered with green vegetation.

It's almost Friday, and you know what that means:
It's time for #Scape ✌️

Post your favourite Scape: #Landscape, Cityscape, Skyscape, #Seascape, #Treescape...

I'm looking forward to it 🥰

The image shows the palm-lined path leading to the Monumento a los Descubridores (Monument to the Discoverers) in La Rábida, Palos de la Frontera, Spain. In the foreground, a large stone compass rose can be seen embedded in the ground of a square. Behind it, palm trees cast their shadows on the ground.

This striking monument is also known as the Columna del IV Centenario (Column of the Fourth Centenary). 
It was erected in honour of those who participated in the discovery of America.

Designed by Ricardo Velázquez Bosco, the monument was inaugurated on 12 October 1892 to mark the 400th anniversary of Columbus' arrival in America.
The column is approximately 54.90 metres high and is made of limestone, concrete and steel. It is crowned by a globe (Orbis) symbolising the world.
It is located in the gardens near the monastery of La Rábida, a historically significant place where Christopher Columbus sought advice and refuge before his first voyage.

In every soul lies an explorer...

A rose branch with rose hips bends from right to left. Many rose hips are black, but some are still bright red. The background is blurred (bokeh).

Two griffon vultures sit facing each other on a rock in the sun. Their beaks touch lightly. They have light-coloured heads and fluff on their necks that looks like a collar. Their brown plumage clearly shows the texture of the feathers.

✨️ A gentle gesture:
Expression of love and trust
being there for you. ✨️

A small bird sits in a meadow and looks to the right. Its body is brown, its breast and face are white, and its upper plumage is dark brown. It has a broad black stripe across its eye and a V-shaped black stripe below its eye. It has grass seeds in its short beak.

For #SmallBirdSaturday, my choice goes to a Rock Bunting that I photographed yesterday 🪶

Wishing you a wonderful weekend 🫶

A waterfall cascades down high rocks in terraces. The rocks at the front are covered with bright green moss. In the background on the right is a very simple wooden barrier marking a viewpoint.

✨️ You might think it's just water, but its constant urge to flow creates paths. ✨️

Keep #flowing ✌️

The picture shows an impressive gorge landscape, which is the Arribes del Duero Natural Park. This region is located on the border between Spain and Portugal. The Duero flows through the valley, which has cut deep into the granite rock over millions of years, forming steep gorges known as "Arribes".
The slopes are covered with Mediterranean vegetation, including juniper, oak and, in the lower areas, often olive and almond trees.
 In the background, a bridge can be seen spanning the deep gorges, as well as fortifications and retaining walls on the slopes. The area is known as a special protection area for birds, especially griffon vultures, golden eagles and black storks.

✨️ The gaze of a golden eagle.
How marvellous this feeling of absolute freedom must be ✨️

Happy #Scape Friday 🫶

You can see the canal, which reflects the cloudy sky and trees standing on the left bank. People are walking along the bank and further back you can see some of the town's houses. The canal narrows and there are also people walking. A bridge connects both sides.

Close-up of a dandelion. The flower has already lost some seeds, but most are still there. A seed floats away like a star.
