apple blossom. (Photographs and text by Raul Lainez)

Malus communis.

The apple is a tall deciduous tree valued for its easy care and the quality and usefulness of its fruits, widespread throughout the world and with which we can do all sorts of delicious dishes and eat them raw.

Its leaves slightly pointed oval, and finally, have a nice texture to the touch and very decorative greenery in our garden.

The flowers are grouped in clusters, white or pinkish color. Its appearance is very simple, with five petals around a large cup that will soon become the apple.

My friend Raul, head of Macro blog, asked me for a while to release any of his pictures of animals and nature, since, for reasons that are irrelevant, he can not do it. I have always found gratifying to help my friends and on this occasion could not be less, so, here you have the first inning.

Robin and Cirl Bunting.

European Robin. (Erithacus rubecola).

The Robin (RAIT in Asturias), is probably the best known of the birds of the northern peninsula. Unlike

Redstart, in which the red color of its tail, is a primitive means of recognition, in the Robin, is an alarm signal. Just spotted another red chest, for this bird, usually good-natured and calm, begin to develop an intimidating behavior concludes with the abandonment of territory by one of the two contestants, usually without a fight. This behavior can also develop if the intruder is another insectivorous bird. **********************************************

Cirl Bunting. (Emberiza cirlus).

Although it can be found in a wide variety of habitats, the Cirl Bunting seems to have a certain predilection for somewhat moist environments such as riverbanks, meadows with scattered trees or shrubs and urban parks.

During the winter, they gather in small bands that frequent fallow and plowed fields. By the good weather, the band split and that is when the male leaves his habits discrete and dedicated to singing at the top of a pole or bush.

In early April, often see the males fly with a blade of grass in its beak, inviting the female build the nest, a task in which, on the other hand, does not participate, nor does it in incubating or feeding chicks. A gentleman, come on. It seems that only works in the feeding if the female has begun with another set.

The nest, hirba and rootlets on a base of moss, is bulky and looks neglected and the same may be in a bush or hedge, in a tree or on the floor.

A notable feature of the scribes is that although sexual dimorphism is quite pronounced scribes do not seem to make a courtship, although both (stop and dimorphism) usually go together.
