Cork oaks are great to see. Those long arms and beautiful cork bark are works of art on seats. The fairy tale becomes complete when you see a whole forest of them. Especially the old ones are a joy to look at. I lined up a few with the camera. You can hear the Golden Oriole, Hoopoe, Chaffinch and so on. The hollows provide a home for many wild animals. I could spend days looking at them and waiting to see what happens. Once every six to seven years, the man with a special axe comes and cuts off the bark. That cork is often ground up and made into useful things. The ices from those trees are on say again useful for animals that make their living from them. Here are a few in a row. I call this the cork oak grove. If you order a nice large photo of it on canvas or have your wallpaper made from it, you'll be living in Extremadura in no time.
