For this week, we have a new theme in SMAP contest: bird houses! As in the human kingdom, bird houses come in many shapes and sizes. For sure, when we hear bird houses, we normally think of the usual ones

Not that it is a serious question, but looks can be deceiving; and in this case, the amount of humps matters! As you probably already guessed, we're talking about camels... and dromedaries! I visited Egypt

From arid dunes to lush green mountains, landscapes are one of my favourite photo subjects. And so it happens they're also the theme for this week's Qurator's Photo Quest! I try to join in on the fun every

Time to share a few of our feathered beauties in this week's SMAP: this week, the theme is a bird you see more often. Well, I can fit a ton of birds in this category; I have a small green area near where

A few weeks ago I met with some friends to explore a natural area not far from home. And Mother Nature decided to showcase us new species even before we got there! As my friend arrived and open the car

Given the storms passing by my country, the golden hour where I live has lost some of its charm in these last weeks; so this is a great time to remember some of the snapshots from my last vacations, where

I finally visited a birdwatching spot I was wanting to visit for a long time. It's less than an hour drive from where I live, and on the way to said spot the amount of wildlife we can see is just impressive

Egypt is a country of different realities: for a country that is mostly desert, there are also places bubbling with life. In the capital Cairo, the same is true for the old and the new, blending almost

It took almost all of January, but finally: my first #featheredfriends post of the year! And also the first one back from really cool holidays; enjoyed them so much that since this week's SMAP has a free

One of the great things about my current vacations (that unfortunately are quickly ending) is being able to combine culture and ancient civilizations, with some sightseeing... and to end in style, some

Serene days travelling through the only river that flows from south to north. And the perfect time to relax. My first cruise was definitely a great experience. The great conditions of the boat, both confort

Vacations are time to relax, but that doesn't mean you have to stay in the same place all the time. Hopping around while travelling might be more tiring to the body, but definitely more relaxing to the

Happy New Year! I'm not much of the end of year deep thinker/planner, but do take a few minutes to reflect on the old year and what to focus on the new one... but I'm starting 2026 the same way I've finished

About time! I normally make good use of my vacation time, but this year was coming to an end with more than half of my vacation days unspent. So entering vacations in Christmas Eve gave the holidays a

I was missing doing my bird posts! So given a little of free time and a relaxed free theme in this week's SMAP, time to share some clicks of a species I'm very fond of. Great crested grebe - Podiceps cristatus

Definitely, these last months have been my sparsest posting months since I've joined the blockchain. Blame some lack of motivation, a ton of things happening off chain, but yeah; it is what it is.

It has been a long time, but better late than never: another weekend getaway! It feels like mini vacations, since there's a holiday on Monday, so an extra day to enjoy our destiny. And given the lack of

Sometimes I stumble on a fun theme in Qurator's Photo Quest, and happen to have photos that fit! This week's theme is color splash, and a few scenes immediatly came to mind. Now, man can create quite a

One of the best ways to return to posting on hive after a short absence? Well, joining this week's SMAP, of course! This week's theme? Male birds! It was female's time to shine last week, so more than

I still couldn't take a decent period of vacations this year (more than one week, that is), although hoping to change that in the short term. So I'm missing some of those landscapes that you can aprecciate
