It is great to be able to meet such special guests that stay at Tauana, but is always sad the day they go away...
They arrive as guests and go away as friends...

a Lua / the Moon
After 5 years of living in Corumbau I’m still stunned by the night shadows designed by the full moon.
Depois de 5 anos a morar no Corumbau ainda fico fascinada pelas sombras desenhadas pela lua cheia.

come see the whales
Humpbacks Whales migrate seasonally between feeding grounds in high latitudes and breeding grounds located in tropical waters. In the Western South Atlantic, the main breeding area for the species is off Bahia State in Brazil. Between July and November, these whales reach the warm, shallow and calm waters to mate and give birth to a single calf, which is born after a gestation period of about 11 months.
Humpbacks are well known for their docile behavior, for their many antics (jumps, head-up displays, pectoral fin slapping, etc.) and for their melodious ‘singing’. Another striking characteristic of this species is the size of the pectoral fins, which are unusually long, reaching around one-third of total body length. Females are slightly larger than males and may reach 16 meters in length, weighing around 40 tons and they may reach speeds of up to 27 kilometers per hour.

the thrill...the physical emotion....
"The taste of the apple...lies in the contact of the fruit with the palate, not in the fruit itself; in a similar way...poetry lies in the meeting of the poem and reader, not in the lines of symbols printed on the pages of a book. What is essential is the aesthetic act, the thrill, the almost physical emotion that comes with each reading."
by Jorge Luis Borges, Foward to Obra Poética
