With this year’s abundant rain, this delicate beauty thrives in still and slow-moving waters. Its finely divided underwater leaves and star-like white flowers support freshwater biodiversity, offering refuge to insects and small aquatic life. A quiet reminder that even the smallest plants play a big role in healthy ecosystems.

Ranunculus aquatilis, small white flowers with yellow centers, float densely on a calm pond surface. Green aquatic leaves and grass-like stems are visible among the flowers, creating a natural, peaceful scene.

Look up to the sky…
Goodbye, Orion Nebula! As the nights grow warmer, this cosmic nursery slips lower in the sky, soon to vanish from our view. A stellar birthplace, it is a stunning cloud of gas and dust, where new stars and planetary systems come to life. (Only!) 1344 light-years away from Earth, its brightness and size make it visible to the naked eye in the night sky.
See you again in autumn.

Thinking our relation to the environment...
Sustainability isn’t just a choice for us, it’s how we live, it's our mission and it's how we welcome you to nature.

The European bee-eaters are back in the skies! These beautiful birds have already arrived, adding bursts of colour and sound to our landscape as they hunt insects mid-air and raise their youngs in sandy riverbanks. A beautiful sign of the season’s turn—and a reminder of the richness of our biodiversity.

Two vividly coloured European bee-eaters (Merops apiaster) perched on a bare, lichen-covered branch. One bird is mid-flight with wings fully spread, approaching the other, which is calmly perched and facing the incoming bird. The background is a pale, cloudy sky, giving focus to the birds' striking plumage in shades of turquoise, yellow, chestnut, and black. Photo was taken at Bubulcus & Bolotas by the guest Ane van Rees.
