I don't know how many children of this important ethnic group from the Orinoco Delta hear from their grandparents this and other beautiful legends that explain so nice the origin of the deltan universe. But in their looks persists the living beauty of the one who knows by intuition that the world is yet to be invented. While it is so, even for this beaten old town, there is still hope. https://steemit.com/spanish/@tupamalo/serie-peques-1-waraos *** ![stars.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRNd6pHHBf5QJk5TPMrdGwrbGhLY6cTkTeCMmyLWwatny/stars.png) *** **Collect Nectar** @adam-aj ![adam-aj 4.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZ9MgVsuV1qTCXXp8yznL8CKego7dKNGrbtG5FAAVqAhU/adam-aj%204.jpeg) Nectar produced by flowers is rich in sugars, such as fructose, sucrose and glucose. Bees and their relatives use a tube-like part of their body to collect nectar. They collect nectar in their stomachs, and it is then passed fro bee to bee to get rid of the excess water in the substance. They can fly up to 10 km a day collecting pollen and nectar. https://steemit.com/macrophotography/@adam-aj/collect-nectar-2018-5-5-23-29-31 *** ![stars.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRNd6pHHBf5QJk5TPMrdGwrbGhLY6cTkTeCMmyLWwatny/stars.png) *** **Cardinal Boys and Girls** @bluefinstudios ![1 Cardinal in Snow.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWgrmuuQWoYdXdqtBTknLLiu928eCr3UQvrJmzm3pYdvm/1%20Cardinal%20in%20Snow.jpg) From this past winter, visiting my feeders. https://steemit.com/colourchallenge/@bluefinstudios/colourchallenge-monday-red-cardinal-boys-and-girls *** ![stars.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRNd6pHHBf5QJk5TPMrdGwrbGhLY6cTkTeCMmyLWwatny/stars.png) *** **Blue Skies and Everything Nice** @patlu ![patlu.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVHs6BKuGCDj88ZgV6fSWHr6NQRApWGk4wv5Byd4eYEzx/patlu.jpg) It's Friday and I am looking forward to another weekend by the seaside in Koh Lipe Island where sea water is not polluted, fine sandy white beaches and it's truly blue skies and everything nice. https://steemit.com/travelphotography/@patlu/pictorial-travel-photography-friday-blue-skies-and-everything-nice *** ![stars.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRNd6pHHBf5QJk5TPMrdGwrbGhLY6cTkTeCMmyLWwatny/stars.png) *** **Capturing Flora** @clicked ![clicked.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdQ4SKdLvgSaLWhp83J3HHVyBsCQoBFoJxpdE36frxqEK/clicked.jpg) Hey Fellow Steemians, today I am going to share some pictures of these beautiful flowers.
