Sorry to hear that you have a problem with the house and rain, hope that things in your area will be better. And I understand that rain is great if you have a solid shelter at hand, if not, becomes a problem and is difficult to enjoy the atmosphere while being soaked or flooded. Here is a lot of flora and fauna in spring and summer, but then in winter, there is not much there to photograph.
I imagine that in Venezuela there is even more biodiversity and insects and flowers all year. From what I saw in some documentaries.
