I saw a couple of robins during the weekend and for once I was carrying my camera.

Lonely walk at the bottom of the Gorbeia, a must-hike for every nature lover in the Basque Country, back in February.

Orange beaked black bird on a poorly pruned tree. Maybe one day I'll be able to afford sharp lenses but for now I'll have to accept that I'm as poor as a rat and content myself with blurry pictures.

The yellow one was designed by Adolfo Gil Lezama and built in 1924. Apparently it was one of the first buildings in Bilbao that had a structure made of concrete instead of wood. Nowadays it houses a hotel.

The grey one was built six years later, in 1930, and the design was by Federico Ugalde Echevarria. As far as I know it remains a residential building.

Train tracks at Abando station, in Bilbao. In a few years this railway station designed by Alfonso Fungairiño in 1948 will be partially demolished to accommodate high speed trains. Tracks will be buried underground, housing built on top, and Bilbao will lose another bit of its recent history.

Slithering roads and foggy dusks — the norm in the Picos de Europa.

Ate out for the first time in many, many months. Food was good but it was the company what made the date especial — I hadn't seen my cousin since Dec19.
