As I traveled, I felt I was moving not just along a road, but through a succession of landscapes that reveal the complex natural history of eastern Cuba.&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ecency.com/DQmQ6jWFk2BNFdfxhqGLV8m6NNt2PS5aTAVKg5vRMjukNZG/1.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The route to Baracoa is—without exaggeration—one of the country’s most fascinating geographic and geological corridors. The road began to climb gently amidst hills of serpentinite—those dark, heavy rocks that tell the story of ancient ocean floors uplifted by tectonic forces. The reddish lateritic soils, rich in iron and chromium, contrasted sharply with the intense green of the vegetation. &lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ecency.com/DQmSenfEe5XUseq7Q7oGy5cMHpEreMJBf7pNyH7EZ4SraMd/2.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In Moa, the earth always looks freshly turned, as if the geology were in deep conversation with the tropical climate. As I headed east, the terrain grew more rugged. The mountains of the Nipe-Sagua-Baracoa massif rose up like green ramparts, cloaked in vegetation that seemed to multiply in layers—tree ferns, &lt;em&gt;yagruma&lt;/em&gt; trees, palms, and that rainforest breathing like a living organism of its own. The road wound its way through hills and narrow valleys, with every bend revealing a new angle of the landscape. &lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ecency.com/DQmcAHDHtCbRHLT1xtpnU1YMXgEboQ81DqkbxxJEdW5XSAe/100_2151.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Traveling through the Yamanigüey area reminded me why this region is a natural laboratory. Ultramafic rocks crop out in road cuts, displaying shades ranging from dark green to black. In some stretches, the vegetation changes abruptly: where the soil is poorer in nutrients, communities of adapted plants—such as &lt;em&gt;cuabales&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;maniguas&lt;/em&gt;—appear, resilient and tenacious. It is a perfect example of how geology shapes life. &lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ecency.com/DQmVFcU5EKguo4K1PrVj1wdotmkgBHcJATAhZZ43oWtYgnJ/100_2158.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As I approached the gorge of the Yumurí River, the landscape transformed into an almost theatrical spectacle. The mountains opened up into a deep corridor, and from above, the river looked like a silver ribbon gliding between rock walls. The Yumurí is one of those waterways that not only shapes the terrain but also tells the story of millions of years of erosion. Its valley is a natural classroom where one can observe the processes of weathering, sediment transport, and the formation of river terraces. &lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ecency.com/DQmXhHiLsXv7x6F73vXVrxe14BfH6NMJSbDL9aWmcwDPuvK/100_2145.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As I descended toward Baracoa, the vegetation grew more lush. The almost constant humidity fosters a unique biodiversity. Amidst the trees, &lt;em&gt;Polymita&lt;/em&gt; snails—living jewels of Cuban wildlife—came into view. Seeing them in their natural habitat, with their multicolored shells clinging to trunks and leaves, is a privilege that always moves me. They are symbols of fragility and beauty, and a reminder of the importance of preserving these ecosystems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Entering Baracoa feels like an embrace from nature. The scent of cacao, the humid air, and the sound of rivers cascading down from the mountains create an atmosphere found nowhere else. From the lookout point, the city appears as a small settlement nestled between the mountains and the sea, surrounded by a landscape that seems designed for contemplation. &lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ecency.com/DQmURcpQU3FSFDYwCynTF16b8gi1HidaiQoVRW2RnXCgMHy/100_2156.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Today we’re off to explore some caves in Portugal to unravel a mystery—one that already has a scientific explanation, though there’s nothing quite like verifying the facts in person. In today’s blog post and video, we’re heading to the Serra de Montejunto to explore one or more of the area’s major caves. Just how dangerous are they? Can we explore them? Will we find any trapped animals? Let’s find out...📍🚙&lt;h1&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;¡Hola, amigos aventureros! Hoy vamos a estar explorando unas cuevas en Portugal para descifrar un misterio que ya tiene una explicación científica, pero no es lo mismo corroborar dichos argumentos en persona. El blog y video de hoy se tratan de ir a la Serra de Montejunto para explorar una o varias cuevas importantes de la zona. ¿Qué tan peligrosas son? ¿Podemos explorarlas? ¿Habrá algún animal atrapado? Veremos...📸🏞️&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The mountain range features nearly a hundred caves and chasms (algares) formed by rainwater dissolving the limestone rock. These formations often acted as vertical natural traps where animals accidentally fell or sought refuge from harsh weather and predators, unable to escape.*&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;**Source:** https://montejunto.pt/espeleologia/&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;*Coordinates: 39.209157, -9.024731 📍🚩/ Coordenadas: 39.209157, -9.024731 🌏📸*&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;![2.gif](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/biologistbrito/23wWnWdKJzLVW4acJTU9nWanXQFu6tGZnvHNCWJ15BYTQCuZyfFswvMUfq9vCgN6sdETE.gif)&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I believe that caves all over the world undergo a similar process: an animal gets trapped, is unable to escape, and ends up fossilized for centuries, serving as scientific evidence. It is known that injured animals often seek shelter in caves to try to recover; therefore, we can conclude that Montejunto is a natural reserve where interesting discoveries can be made. The downside? The caves are difficult to locate📸🚙&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Creo que todas las cuevas del mundo también pasan por un proceso como este: un animal queda atrapado, luego no consigue salir y queda &quot;fosilizado&quot; por siglos, sirviendo como prueba científica. Se sabe que un animal herido también busca refugio para intentar recuperarse, y suelen hacerlo en cuevas; por lo que concluimos que &quot;Montejunto&quot; es una reserva natural propicia para descubrir cosas interesantes. ¿Lo malo?

&lt;div&gt;Today was a mix of many things. The morning forecast called for cool weather, so I brought a jacket along. As it turned out, midday caught me on the mountain and the heat was brutal—feeling like 37 degrees or higher. When I reached the summit—at 600 meters—the wind was incredibly strong**. It** seems you can never truly prepare for what lies ahead on this mountain. Aside from that, the scenery was beautiful.📸🚙&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://hive.blog/hive-174680/@biologistbrito/why-do-animals-die-in-caves-por-que-los-animales-mueren-en-las-cuevasen-es&quot;&gt;Read the full post&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded><dc:creator>biologistbrito</dc:creator><category>hive-174680</category></item><item><title>AMONG YELLOW FLOWERS (En - Es)</title><link>https://hive.blog/hive-174680/@annafenix/among-yellow-flowers-en-es</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hive.blog/hive-174680/@annafenix/among-yellow-flowers-en-es</guid><description>![1000450355.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/annafenix/23xKvd8sM7UdWgAjuihLnjBBLgv3LxTZYCkTJ7GgsNX1TDcLYZmLYnTVToa8m82X8mNVN.jpg)ENGLISH Greetings to all nature lovers... welcome to my blog.

&lt;h1&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Greetings to all nature lovers... welcome to my blog.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, World Yellow Flower Day was celebrated—specifically on September 21st. While this date marks the beginning of spring in some parts of the world, the tradition of gifting a yellow flower on that day has spread to many other places. You can imagine the massive commercial demand for sunflowers and yellow roses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On the other hand, I was delighted to see how simply participating in this beautiful tradition inspired simpler gestures—like handing a wild yellow flower to a friend. This prompted me to put together a photo collection of yellow flowers from my local area that were part of the day, and I wanted to share their characteristics with you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’ll start with a very distinctive flower found in many of the city&apos;s planters: the &lt;em&gt;Copa de Oro&lt;/em&gt; (Golden Cup). I don&apos;t know if it comes in other colors—I don&apos;t think so; here, I’ve only ever seen it in this intense yellow, a trait reflected in its names. Its scientific name is &lt;em&gt;Allamanda cathartica&lt;/em&gt;, and it is also known as Cuban Jasmine, Yellow Trumpet, and Buttercup Flower. &lt;a href=&quot;https://share.google/EKR1hoq3wEMN9wVGw&quot;&gt;Allamanda cathartica - Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another well-known yellow flower is the sunflower; along with yellow roses, it is a quintessential choice for bouquets. I’ve seen several sunflower crops in the area, though they aren&apos;t as common in home gardens. A flower that &lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt; quite common in gardens, however, is the &lt;em&gt;capacho&lt;/em&gt;—also known as &lt;em&gt;Achira&lt;/em&gt;—whose scientific name is &lt;em&gt;Canna indica&lt;/em&gt;. This flower doesn&apos;t just come in yellow; it also appears in red, orange, white, and other shades. &lt;a href=&quot;https://share.google/shDUkH7wFbR8pNHVc&quot;&gt;Canna indica - Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/annafenix/23y8t1jxbWAbFU9e5hsascYXteoSPmXgb2V9MqLDaRJzWPN78pVsK3iRNBpKJYU6ndroS.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;1000450345.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://share.google/EKR1hoq3wEMN9wVGw&quot;&gt;Allamanda cathartica - Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Among our wildflowers, we find these three beauties that I had the chance to capture on the savanna during a recent hike. One of them is the &lt;em&gt;Chaparro bobo&lt;/em&gt; flower, scientifically known as &lt;em&gt;Palicourea rigida&lt;/em&gt;. It is a lovely species, but one meant only for admiration, as it is considered toxic to both animals and humans. &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/reel/Da9uBqrTriw/?stkn=MWN5MHZtbHRudmN0dQ==&quot;&gt;Palicourea rigida - Instagram&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another striking species is the Yellow Cosmos (&lt;em&gt;Cosmos sulphureus&lt;/em&gt;); like the previous one, it is part of the savanna flora. The small flower in the image is a very intense yellow, though it also comes in orange and red varieties. &lt;a href=&quot;https://share.google/PVhXcnwfnXRM0Q4Nk&quot;&gt;Cosmos sulphureus - Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finally, there is the &lt;em&gt;Pavonia&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;em&gt;Pavonia cancellata&lt;/em&gt;); although uncommon, it can be found in certain sandy areas of the savanna. &lt;a href=&quot;https://share.google/Iitm8BHLCkwrJVfKf&quot;&gt;Pavonia cancellata - Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That concludes this showcase of yellow flowers; I hope you enjoyed it... have a wonderful day, everyone.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Saludos a todos los amantes de la naturaleza... bienvenidos a mi blog. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Días atrás se estuvo celebrando el Día Mundial de Regalar Flores Amarillas, exactamente el día 21 de septiembre. Esta fecha está dirigida hacia el inicio de la primavera en algunos lugares del mundo, pero terminó celebrándose en muchos otros lugares, por el acto especial de regalar una flor amarilla ese día. Se podrán imaginar la comercialización tan grande que tuvo el girasol y las rosas amarillas. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Por otro lado, pude ver con alegría, cómo el simple hecho de ser parte de esta hermosa tradición, permitió gestos más sencillos como llegar ese día con una flor amarilla silvestre hasta las manos de una amiga. Eso me incentivó a hacer una recopilación fotográfica de algunas flores amarillas de mi entorno que fueron parte de ese día y les quise compartir sus características. &lt;/p&gt;

## English version 
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;The state of Sucre is coastal and therefore has many beaches, as well as two gulfs, within its borders. The influence of the sea is undeniable, which is why the flora that characterizes this region tends to be resistant to drought and high temperatures. Among this variety, the Silver Button Mangrove (Conocarpus erectus var. sericeus) stands out; it is believed to be native to the country due to its unique characteristics. Perhaps the most striking feature is its grayish foliage and its curious button-shaped fruits, hence its name.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;
![1000140879.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/23w2m8qu5M2TmhNfEoq6Xheadvz7B3AXqUAvvpzGeDv2ETzQTjYefjJUGqojtCYdR8Evw.jpg)
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;

&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p&gt;Unlike most mangroves, this species does not grow with its roots submerged in the sea or in marshy areas. In the photos, taken on the Caigüire boardwalk, you can see that these specimens are planted on dry land, though very close to the sea, in an area known as &lt;strong&gt;The Cross&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;
![1000140192.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/Eou99WCQn1cB1TRALhg8u2GrKJSd5Jn36soFJrutV8o1rELqAwmEoYiFpWNp48JnVHW.jpg)
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;
![1000140188.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/EoCg8WbRsFJifQqoD98VF4oUs2kUA3PZFFZfaaYLcuAmmRBaj3zHZ6JUuVoXFxe9Kwo.jpg)
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p&gt;As I got closer, I could see a layer of silky hairs covering the leaves of this mangrove; because of this unique feature, it appears silvery, since this surface, when reflecting sunlight, takes on that shiny grayish hue that really catches the eye. In addition to adding visual appeal, these silky hairs—or trichomes—serve as heat insulators, which is why this mangrove typically maintains its moisture without needing to live in water. Nature is amazing. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;
![1000140193.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/23x16s5HsAeoz3moaRh4vSZ2oywYQVGV91WqHqDff7Q5vuJ8h1oKuKkq7cCv24h6LYa54.jpg)
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;
![1000140187.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/245T7cH418J5Kh3nhL8DEtyw6Cv1dxW3B7CXbgK2GgcKWgoTEWENnrdUWJ1LLprbgwAJw.jpg)
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;center&gt;
![1000140191.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/EoCh5xwjFWGSbudhnniSaRMBahPHDUaCvpDecMMXBySMQaDyHrJg3pjTFZBBc3UxWJ1.jpg)
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are thus in the presence of a shrub that, in pre-Hispanic and colonial times, served as raw material for the manufacture of stakes, columns, and  hulls of small boats due to its resistance to moisture and salinity—a trait it achieves through salt-secreting glands at the base of its leaves. It is also capable of secreting a nectar that attracts ants, insects that keep it free of wood-boring pests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our indigenous people used the wood of this mangrove for many purposes; in addition to those mentioned, its trunk was used as firewood that burned for a long time, employed in cooking, pottery, and blacksmithing. Furthermore, its bark is rich in tannins, which is why it was useful for tanning fishing nets, thereby providing greater resistance to abrasion from seawater.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;
![1000140160.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/23zkniFaLtACSfMbiphAhtT6JxGTvtcUYnp1aqD9Qj6KCa8jF4smNqEQPqYAeXD4U2DWx.jpg)

&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p&gt;While researching the Silver-button Mangrove, I was surprised to learn of the many virtues this shrub possesses; it even has medicinal uses due to its astringent properties, serving to cleanse wounds, sores, and skin rashes. Likewise, its leaves are used to prepare an infusion to relieve digestive ailments, including diarrhea.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;
![1000140156.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/saavedraa/Eoc5A1S39CENkKa1udFEUtm3pgKE8v1MRwxsB4YezS4JrKunWGVsZ2QHJ3hrhabpTzy.jpg)

&lt;/center&gt;&lt;p&gt;With regard to reproduction, the small, button-like structures contain seeds that serve as food for birds and pollinating insects, thereby initiating the reproductive process—with the exception that this mangrove can survive in arid and fragile soils, although it can also be found on beach shores, that is, in areas exposed to waves and tidal winds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And that wraps up my entry in the contest about my favorite plant. I invite @jlinaresp, @noalys, @jesuslnrs, and @denissemata to join this initiative. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;¿Qué debe hacer?:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Salir a tomar fotografias sobre la planta que estudiará, YA SABE ÚNICA DEL PAÍS&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;¿Qué debe responder en su post?:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;¿Qué tiene de interesante esa planta?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;¿Algún beneficio para la salud?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;¿La usaban los antepasados?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;¿Algún dato científico curioso?&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;What should you do?:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Go out and take photos of the plant you’ll be studying—AS YOU KNOW, IT’S THE ONLY ONE OF ITS KIND IN THE COUNTRY&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;What should you include in your post?:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What makes this plant interesting?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Does it have any health benefits?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Did our ancestors use it?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Any interesting scientific facts?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Reglas:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No corte la planta solo tome fotos bonitas.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Debe ser un post nuevo, original.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No puede usar IA para crear contenido, solo podría ser viable la imagen principal.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Mínimo: sin límite de palabras, ni límite de fotos, no puede ser reciclado&lt;br /&gt;*Debe invitar &lt;strong&gt;cuatro amigos&lt;/strong&gt;, que estén activos en Hive, que no hayan sido invitados anteriormente por un colega y que no esté participando.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Rules:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Don&apos;t cut the plant—just take nice photos.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;It must be a new, original post.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You cannot use AI to create content; the main image is the only exception.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Minimum requirements: no word limit, no photo limit; content cannot be recycled.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You must invite &lt;strong&gt;four friends&lt;/strong&gt; who are active on Hive, have not been previously invited by a colleague, and are not currently participating.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We recommend making it bilingual with &lt;strong&gt;Spanish, English, and Portuguese&lt;/strong&gt;*&lt;/p&gt;

Today we have some very interesting news. After several discussions, the AN team (administrators, moderators) decided to make the community a safe, protected, and 100% original space... But how is this? From now on, only people who have been granted membership will be able to post in our community, meaning they are classified as members. This is an important step forward because we are here to make this space a place of learning, a space that goes beyond posting photos and some text. This will differentiate us from other communities with a focus on nature and animals. I will explain the criteria and how to become a member. PLEASE CHECK IF YOU ARE A MEMBER BEFORE POSTING OR THE SYSTEM WILL MUTE YOUR POST⛺🚙🌷✍🏻💙🚩&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-174680/AJpjpb7HK2gE7Wk3rNZhTaJ21vRXnY2wgGmznRxffKZGH8hS3y2EcCfLnnAzKZJ.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;BeFunky-collage (63).jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;&lt;center&gt;What benefits can membership bring to our community and the hive platform?🦾&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-174680/243zrUmyPFr3TQixjArZr51hyWngbrE98pydALY1fXSLRCjmpXuDdCKrmN14JMumNwPDd.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;BeFunky-collage (64).jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;div&gt;We mentioned it in the post: &quot;how to publish in an&quot;  &lt;a href=&quot;https://peakd.com/hive-174680/@hive-174680/guidelines-for-posting-in-our-community-read-before-posting&quot;&gt;https://peakd.com/hive-174680/@hive-174680/guidelines-for-posting-in-our-community-read-before-posting&lt;/a&gt;) people tend to confuse us with a photography community, we do not want to see content from several photos of the same object and give us their opinion, that content goes in a photography community, our publication guide explains that the post has to have some ecological, scientific learning. Membership allows the selected user to meet all the requirements to show their content with us.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;We want people who strive to create something original&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Person who complies with the community rules&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Person with ethics and a sense of responsibility&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;A verified validated account&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;We want to humanize the community, be able to socialize and get to know our members a little, so it&apos;s essential to request membership on our Discord.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-127788/iDl7e4nf-an.png &lt;/center&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;center&gt;How do I apply for membership? What benefits will it bring you?🦾&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-174680/23wr9x2FoLbZ91d7MzdbUYuavzCjZG3H8i62BVnDBmMZePEWnACdLyoWbaV6mhasZGzxJ.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;BeFunky-collage (65).jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;div&gt;We found it really fun that the membership option allows you to add each member&apos;s specialty. This is one of the benefits; you&apos;ll be able to show people what type of content you specialize in (botany, zoology, landscape). Clearly, if you&apos;re not a member, you won&apos;t be able to post! Additionally, members can win hives every week if they&apos;re among the (weekly winners). This is what this post is about, for example! WANT TO BECOME A MEMBER OF OUR COMMUNITY? Request your membership on our Discord.✍🏻💙🚩🌷💙&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://images.ecency.com/DQmTYCfRUT7NtxkQFF2FWTjiMQV5jGKkGZjKsvo6qjTRFNM/image.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;https://hive.vote/dash.php&lt;/center&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;The first thing you do is open the link that I leave you there, you will log in with your account, then you will select curation trail&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://images.ecency.com/DQmXEFCvamaEF2RwEiPscPD2VxhRC3bYHFDSRTpVJZsWYne/image.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;The next step is down where the search bar is and there you will write (hive-174680) which is the user of our community and press search.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://images.ecency.com/DQmZyo2gHFbixsyYmsvSi2pJivUYM4Vr8EJSddb5J6ej9Au/image.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Then you will follow it&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://images.ecency.com/DQmY4DUrHwvaL7YuhusGZrJiWZYvbxaxh1FupNNE41PDwX4/image.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Then select the configure option, and there you will see this panel&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://images.ecency.com/DQmNQCrAKryrGuW5KboXVDZ6K1F1NxizeVShwHoJMeJr3bc/image.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;And finally you are going to configure your voting power, if you want to put 5 to 50% you can do it, that does not influence your HP at all, on the contrary it helps collect votes for the community and increases your rewards.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join and post through the community and you can earn curation rewards.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Contents must be posted into the Amazing Nature (AN) Community feed or use as first tag if posting from Ecency.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Photographs must be your own or properly sourced with a description of at least a few sentences.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Entries for the Amazing Nature Contest are separate. They will be highlighted in the competition evaluation.&lt;/p&gt;

We&apos;ll continue with the same approach as AMAZING NATURE ORIGINAL. Back then, we didn&apos;t allow posts of one or more photographs of the same &quot;object&quot; showing multiple angles and some writing. This doesn&apos;t really contribute anything scientific or educational to our community. Here&apos;s a summary of what you need to do to publish with us.✍🏻🗺️🌳&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-174680/Ep1XTesDh43484aHhVWAVza3dErU6cVqhVT6uFH8GVJCC1zXo43C27ztkxu24yybfJY.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;BeFunky-collage (16).jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;&lt;center&gt;Posts that will be silenced❌&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;div&gt;There are people who do not want to meet the requirements and still publish because they receive rewards and we are not going to allow this, so if your post does not meet the requirements it will be silenced, straight to the point, WHAT NOT TO PUBLISH IN OUR COMMUNITY???&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-174680/AJizGXk4iXdyFk9QiLBUoVFwK7Ege8pGNrSfTQqdNhoQUpPHUcT9jy6k1221psH.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;BeFunky-collage (20).jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;a) The post is effortless and presents a photo of the same animal or plant many times from the same or several angles.❌&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;b) the post does not contain any academic, scientific, or ecological teachings about the animal or plant shown (IS THERE NO COMMUNITY FOR PHOTOGRAPHS???) OF COURSE IT DOES!!! You are posting in the wrong place.❌&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;C) Clearly, people&apos;s mistake is posting in our community thinking that we are a community of experiences or photographs.❌&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-127788/iDl7e4nf-an.png &lt;/center&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;center&gt;Welcome posts (plants and animals)✅&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;center&gt;example post:&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://peakd.com/hive-174680/@capp/planta-del-genero-trixis&quot;&gt;https://peakd.com/hive-174680/@capp/planta-del-genero-trixis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;a) These are several photos of the same species of plant, but they provide scientific content.✅&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;b) Leave the references from where you extracted the information, which allows you to learn more about the plant and corroborate what you express in the post.✅&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;c) goes to great lengths to describe the plant in a way that makes it clear that this post is NOT INTENDED FOR A PHOTO COMMUNITY.✅&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;center&gt;example post:&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://peakd.com/hive-174680/@quiubi/let-s-learn-about-the&quot;&gt;https://peakd.com/hive-174680/@quiubi/let-s-learn-about-the&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;a) Clearly the author made a post that was not as scientific and more dynamic and fun, always respecting our guidelines.✅&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-174680/23uFyW6bX4dXEBuf3G5WN2jbdhFZqMZv4Puw6jwgmRrQhiYMCrm6j7J8P5LdTKrv34Txa.png&quot; alt=&quot;image.png&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;b) He talks about the animal&apos;s ecology, and to end his post he places where he got the fun information from.✅&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;c) we conclude that to distinguish ourselves from photo communities you have to look for some material that supports what you say about your plant or animal / we want to learn / not admire photos /✅&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Here are many examples of posts about travel and nature that we voted for! We&apos;re usually partial to several beautiful photos, describing your experience. What did you do? What did you enjoy? What nature did you see? Why do you share it on Hive?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;WE WILL NOT ACCEPT❌: (Take a photo of the sun several times and talk about &quot;your experience&quot; that IS A PHOTOGRAPHY POST not from our community)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;WE WILL NOT ACCEPT❌:3/4 photos, 100 words, showing a river, a tree, or a cloud! You must rely on the example posts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
