In this framework, this morning was moved a dead tree was nested within which a beautiful species, the owl, nocturnal predator of small dimensions.
En route to the Golden Vase, one of the trees lining the sidewalk, in the hollow of the trunk dry the bird had nested, protecting their offspring, had been attacked on several occasions to pedestrians.
In order to prevent attacks and, in turn, protect the species, the Department of Environment of the City Council decided to cut the dead tree and remove to a place so close to continue to serve as habitat for the owl.
The adjoining land owner, Jose Carreno, readily accepted that the tree was placed on his property.
Through the collaboration of the neighbor, the City could cut the tree and place it in the hope that the owl continues to play in our land.

Just when it was found that the tree was empty, he proceeded to his transfer.
