I’m not particularly a social media person. I keep a personal facebook profile since most colleagues in my field use it to share info on research, events, etc. There are now very interesting research social media options but people keeps insisting on fb as a primary means of communicating science. I guess this and many attitudes such as that keeps facebook going. I never understood twitter and I don’t use it. I share most of my work on LinkedIn which I find the most suitable network for someone with my profile. I’m happy to see more people from my field of studies going to LinkedIn.
For Starling Fajãzinha we have a youtube channel although posts are not a regular thing there. There is also a facebook and linkedin page, but the central network for ST is instagram (it publishes to the fb page). This is a more visual network and from time to time I publish a photo I like. There is a “latest photos” gallery in the home page of this blog. It’s not a successful profile but I’m happy with it and the reactions there to the photos. Let’s say that the success of the profile is proportional to the time and effort invested on it.
One of the “new” terms I discovered on instagram is the monthly (or something else) photo dump. As the name suggests it is a bunch of photos in one publication, for a simple description. So, I thought it would be a good idea to publish a “photo dump” of this Winter’s photos at Fajãzinha, a sort of summary of what I published since arriving in Flores in early November last year. Here follows. Enjoy!
Feliz Páscoa! 💝

I was wondering what country this is? It’s very attractive, wherever you are.

Hi! Most of the photos are from the small 60-inhabitants village of Fajãzinha, on the west coast of Flores Island, Azores, one of two Portuguese archipelagos in the middle of the Atlantic!

Oh thanks! It is a beautiful island, but I’m a bit suspect to say that though.

What a beautiful photo dump! I love the vista from the new pasture looking across the Atlantic.

Thanks! I just thought it would be nice to look at the covers of the Winter posts, and since the “dump” is now a thing I thought why not give it a go…
