po Sloveniji, medvedje in izginjajoča jezera / around Slovenia, bears and disappearing lakes

Skovenija je bogata z gozdovi, preko 60 % njenega ozemlja je pokrito z njimi, ti pa so tudi dom rjavega medveda. Največ jih je na Kočevskem in v Notranjski. Tu pogosto slišimo novice, da je medved obiskal kakšno vas. Mi nismo srečali niti enega, kljub temu, da smo se vozili po gozdni cesti. Večjo srečo smo imeli pri Bloškem jezeru, kjer je ribaril 😊.

Slovenia is a country rich in forests. Over 60% of its area is covered with forests and it is also a habitat of brown bear. Kočevska and Notranjska regions are their homeland. The news about bears who visited the small villages is quite common here. We didn’t meet a single bear, even though we drove along the forest road. But we had luck at Bloke lake, where we saw a bear fishing in the lake😊 .

Cerkniško jezero / Cerknica lake

Presihajoča jezera so zanimiv pojav, pojavijo se v deževni dobi in izginejo v sušnem obdobju leta. Cerkniško jezero je eno največjih presihajočih jezer v Evropi. V tem letnem času, bi moralo biti izsušeno, zaradi letošnjega deževnega poletja pa je ostalo majhno jezero.

Intermittent lakes are very interesting phenomena: in the rainy period the lake appears and it disappears in the drought time of the year. Cerknica lake is one of the largest intermittent lakes in Europe. In this time of the year it should be dried out, but thanks to rainy summer there is still a little lake. 

Medveda res nismo videli, tale žaba pa nam je pozirala.

We didn’t see a bear, but a frog posed for the camera.

Slovenija je lepa, zelena dežela. Po mojem mnenju so najlepše Alpe in Soška dolina, kjer smo doma.

Slovenia is a beautiful and green country. In my opinion the most beautiful parts are Alps and Soča valley, where we live.
