Blogg experience

Hello bloggers, today is a big day because this is the last blogg I am going to write for a long time.
It is about my experience working on this, the topics, and the bloggs I have created and how I feel about it.
Well I gotta say this has been good, I had a good time doing this, for me at least it was sort of relaxing and funny when I compared with my classmates what they wrote in their bloggs. I never found this too compicated, since it is all related to our carrer and I always had the time necessary to do it.  My favourite blogg was about "My favourite band" in wich I talked about Sigúr Ros and I loved it because I felt so excited to know they are coming to Chile and I hope I can still get a entry. My least favourite blogg was the one called "An expert on my field", not beacuse of the topic, but because that day I was really tired and sleepy so I didnt feel like writing it. Finally I would like to say thanks a lot to you my followers for comenting my bloggs and paying attetion to it. Hope we talk soon , byee



My favourite animal..

Hello everyone again, today I will tell you about my favorite animal, the wolf, (Canis lupus). The wolf is, a species of placental mammal of the order of carnivores. Wolves were once abundant and were distributed throughout North America, Eurasia and the Middle East. Currently, for a number of reasons related to man, including the widespread habit of hunting, wolves inhabit a very limited portion of what was formerly their territory. In some parts of the world like the US Species are considered as endangered or threatened. They have been hunted for the threat they pose to livestock. Wolves often have the coat of several mixed colors. Howling helps the pack members to keep in touch, allowing them to communicate effectively in dense forests or great distances. Wolves are territorial animals, and visual communication with the impressive variety of expressions and modes, that from subtle signs or slight movements, to more obvious expressions like showing complete submission by rolling upside down.
The reason I chose the wolf, is that as a child, I saw a movie called Balto, which was about a dog with the wolf mixture that had to carry medicine on sleds for some sick children.

My favourite tree...

Hello everyone again, today I will talk to you about my favourite tree wich is the Maiten(Maytenus boaria). I chose this one because I believe it is a beautiful tree and I really like the colors and the architecture that it has. It is a native tree of South America. In my country, Chile, it inhabits from Tarapacá to Magallanes, but at present it is in very restricted zones of the southern sector of the Andes mountain range. It is an evergreen tree, which can reach 20 meters in height. Its leaves are small, simple, and alternate. The flowers are small; The masculine ones are yellow-brown and the feminine green ones with purple lines. Among its uses is firewood to produce charcoal, and as food for cattle from which comes its name Boaria that means "relative to cattle" in Latin, the above because the animals look for their leaves to eat. In addition, the flowers combined with the European bees introduced produce a delicious honey. Today's theme seems to me to be extremely important, since knowing trees, their structure, products and functioning is a key aspect of what I am studying, so the more I study the trees, the closer I get to the understanding of nature. That for today friends, take care of yourself and see you the other week.

An expert on my field

Hello everyone again, today I will tell you about a person who is an expert in the field of what I am studying, Forest Engineering, she is Claudia Cerda, who teaches a subject called Forest Products and Services, who is also a forestry engineer Of the University of Chile, she is specialized in the field of how ecosystems and nature relate to people, as well as the benefits we receive from them. This is peculiarly interesting because, personally, I am more attracted to working with people who are related to forests, more than for example working in a laboratory with samples of plants, since it has never been my strong and I was going bad In that field, that is why I have seen the opportunity to work with her, because she invited us to cooperate in the investigation of ecosystem services which I am very enthusiastic about, she knows how to elaborate very well and defend her ideas very well, besides being concrete With facts and making us see the reality of many problems that exist today in matters of environmental management.
Well that for today, watch out and see you next week.
