Dionaea muscipula



That's the scientific name of "Carnivorous plant" (meat-eating or flies-catcher). Last saturday I was at the Aracena's market and I bought this wondeful and exotic plant. In the past I had a "bonsai" but it dried snif, snif. Now I need a lot of flies for it. I'm willing to pay 1€/100 flies

Amanita Cesarea


The queen of mushrooms: Last Saturday I went out with some friends at the Sierra of Aracena. We were in a lovely town called Almonaster la Real. Our goal was to find Amanita Cesarea (a highly prized mushroom). The day was rainy and cold but that did not matter. In a cork oak forest we found a treasure. There were hundreds of beautiful specimens. They are orange-red. We caught almost 10 kg (and the marketprice now is about 36€/kg). In Huelva the Amanita is known as TANA. It is really a very nice and very tasty mushroom.
