Hello friends, how are you doing? 👋
Yesterday I decided to leave early for the countryside to visit some friends. Since I no longer depend on public transportation, I grabbed my bike and set off 🚴♂️. The weather was spectacular, at least during those early morning hours, because at noon the heat really kicks in. ☀️
My friends are a married couple with six children, but there are two that I am particularly fond of. I saw them being born, and to them I am their uncle. Every time I visit them, it's a party: the children run around, laugh, and the first thing they ask for is photos.
These snapshots 📸 are my submission for the #monomad challenge by 
The road to these rural communities is only passable when it is not raining, because when it rains, so much mud forms that you can only get through on horseback.
And there they were waiting for me, Victor Manuel and Melody.
Country children have a sweetness in their eyes that makes them unique. As soon as I arrived, they began a marathon of showing me their stuffed animals and toys.
Not even the cat was spared 😄.
Neither did the ducks, which approached, I don't know if to say hello or to see if any food would fall 🦆. Obviously, they also ended up in the photos.
Since the children know that I love photographing birds, they immediately took me to a small forest near the house.
And so ended my country adventure with Vitico and Melody, two siblings who I already feel are part of my family. I am very grateful to them for their time and affection.
See you soon, friends! 🙌

Saludos amigos, ¿cómo les va? 👋
Ayer decidí salir temprano rumbo al campo para visitar a unos amigos. Como ya no dependo del transporte público, agarré la bicicleta y me puse en marcha 🚴♂️. El clima estaba espectacular, al menos durante esas primeras horas de la mañana, porque al mediodía el calor aprieta de verdad. ☀️
Mis amigos son un matrimonio con seis hijos, pero hay dos a los que les tengo un cariño muy especial. Los vi nacer, y para ellos soy su tío. Cada vez que los visito es una fiesta: los niños corren, ríen, y lo primero que piden son fotos 📸.
El camino hasta esas comunidades rurales solo es transitable cuando no llueve, porque si cae agua se forma tal cantidad de lodo que solo se puede pasar a caballo 🐎.
Y allí estaban esperándome, Víctor Manuel y Melody.
Los niños del campo tienen una dulzura en la mirada que los hace únicos. Apenas llegué, comenzó una maratón de enseñarme sus peluches y juguetes.
Ni el gato se salvó 😄.
Tampoco los patos, que se acercaron no sé si para saludar o para ver si caía algo de comida 🦆. Obviamente, también terminaron en las fotos.
Como los niños saben que me encanta fotografiar aves, enseguida me llevaron a un pequeño bosque cerca de la casa. Allí aproveché
Y así terminó mi aventura campestre con Vitico y Melody, dos hermanos que ya siento como parte de mi familia. Les agradezco mucho por el tiempo y el cariño de siempre.
¡Nos vemos pronto, amigos! 🙌
