Sunday - dog walking - ecological nappies - Paella - Agave Cactus killer beetle found in dead Agave.

Here are some pictures from my morning walk.

Ecological Nappies. Andreia will be giving birth in 6 weeks - another El Rio baby.

And the "filling".

The Agave killing beetle - effects. !

This is a very dangerous little beetle. !

Paella by Enriques.

Pictures of the El Rio Spring 19/09/2015. We have had 48 mm of rain this month and there is a little more water in the river. Not much, but some. It shows that we are not totally dependent on the aquifer..

 Here we are at the place where there used to be a dam to push the water into the tunnel to feed the Irrigation Line

 Here is the pond which used to be a flowing small river feeding the line.

 We are looking at the non-existent feed from the Nacamiento. (Spring)

 Here is the top pond of the non-flowing Nacamiento

I am up the mountain looking down on the non-existent flow - see the white strip alongside the cane - that is where the river used to be. !

A day assessing our future - 3 months if we are lucky. The situation is serious. The drought is serious.

 Super Intensive Olives. 1,800 trees per hectare

 5,000 tons of water per hectare per year. Juan Carrion has 1,700 hectares  - 500 hectares = 900,000 olive trees = total in planning THREE MILLION TREES

 Drinking water truck on the way to Los Perales

 Drought stricken trees on the road to Los Perales

 No irrigation - no olives on these trees.

 The road to Los Perales

 Los Perales main square

 Population has reduced to 15 people

 People are selling

 The river at Los Perales is no longer a river. The water is shallow and not moving. 

 Looking from Los Perales up towards los Molinos Del Rio De Aguas

 In the protected Nature 2000 El Rio De Aguas

 There is still flowing water and habitat is still intact

 You can see in this picture - the river is very small.

 Small pool and happy dogs

 The site of the "dam" which used to hold water for the tunnel - almost dry

 Showing greatly lowered supply

Well, this is the Nacamiento - or was the Nacamiento. !
