Fires in Galicia

Almost every summer Galicia is plagued with forest fires. Right now there are over one hundred fires burning in Galicia. These photos are taken from near my house. Monte Pedroso has been on fire for a couple of days and fire fighting teams are using planes, helicopters and anything at their disposal to get these fires under control. You can read more about it in the local paper or if you don´t understand Spanish you can flip through the photo albums. Also there is an article here in BBC
