Three pictures for lovers of flora and fauna. The sparrow can be identified at once, but there is a problem with the bird in the centre. If anyone can identify the bird, please inform the webmaster.
If we believe a source in the net, this miniature according to the Bolivian order in 1906 was designed by Eiffel himself. Dismantled steel structures were sent to Sucre, where local engineers erected the tower as per the drawings. It was ready by the 100th anniversary of the Liberation Cry (of 25 May 1809 uprising). Initially, from 1909 till 1925 the tower was used for meteorological observations, later it was moved to the place, where it is situated now – in Bolivar park.
