Wild Iberian goats

 

I've just got those three photos that were taken in the Cantabrian Mountains, in Northern Spain. My daughter encountered those creatures while she visiting that beautiful corner of Spain last week. It seems the goat disagrees with tourists :-) 🐐 


I hope I'll visit that beautiful corner of Spain. The good news is that there is now 2 hours and 45 minutes direct flight from Rome to Santiago del Monte, where Asturias airport is located.


I am stepping out back from posting for a little while.
Have a lovely new week.

  1. Very nice photos :) Really!
    Giorgio, let me ask you something. Tell me, can larger parcels be sent from Italy to the USA by regular mail?

    1. Yes, Anna. We can send them from Italy to the USA. The cost of the service generally starts from over €100 for bulky packages. You can find out the cost by filling the form in the following link:

  2. Giorgio, I asked about the possibility of sending larger packages to the USA, because in Poland it hasn't been possible for over 7 months! I have a package to send since September, and I can't do it. The package weighs less than 1 kilogram, and it's a stuffed animal, a birthday present for a little girl.
    Last time, today, I asked at the post office if it was possible to send such packages? The answer I received was: perhaps it won't be possible until Trump is president!!!
    P.S.
    Giorgio, I responded to your comment on the post https://moimokiem-bezfikcji.blogspot.com/2026/04/smolensk-polskie-pietno.html in two comments under that post.

    1. Anna, I can get a confirmation tomorrow, as I'll go to the post office. I also ask them information about the cost of the service, considering the package weighs less than 1 kilogram. You can send the package from your country to Italy and, consequently, I'll send it to the US. Tomorrow I'll give you other information.

  5. Wonderful photos Giorgio. The bird looks like a male chaffinch, I see him regularly over here on my walks :-D She must be having a great time over there.

    We did a road trip to see my blogging friend Elena (Enara's Things), she doesn't really post these days though. We did that back in 2019 when my daughter was 6 months! We drove from Scotland to England, got the ferry from Newhaven to Dieppe. Drove through France stopping a few times and then to the north of Spain, near the border where my friend lives. Was a wonderful experience. I would like to do it again next year but get the boat to Santander from Portsmouth.

    Enjoy your blog break :-D

  6. You're so lucky to see those beautiful birds while you walking. Black crows in your area are beautiful. You sometimes show them on blog.

    I think you really drove a lot from Scotland to North Spain. Actually, it is a great idea to get the ship from Portsmouth to Santander. My daughter says Northen Spain 's mountains are marvelous. I have never been to Northern Spain.
