The summer season is quietly coming to an end, and one of the first hidden signs is the appearance of this tiny flowers. They are often called September snow! Every year, we have a little secret competition to see who can spot it first in the terrain.
As soon as we have the first heavy morning dew, these delicate white bells begin to bloom. They rise almost unnoticed among the dry grasses, glistening with droplets, fragile yet full of promise. Promise of the beginning of the growing season, the slow awakening of the earth after summer’s rest.

A close-up photograph of two delicate white bell-shaped flowers of Acis autumnalis, also known as autumn snowflake, taken at Bubulcus & Bolotas. The flowers hang from slender reddish stems, with droplets of water clinging to their petals and stems, glistening in soft sunlight. The blurred background shows warm earthy tones, highlighting the fragile beauty of the blossoms.

Look up to the sky...
and gaze into a cosmic snow globe filled with more than 100,000 sparkling stars — that’s M13, the Hercules Cluster. One of the brightest globular clusters in the Northern Hemisphere, M13 lies 25,000 light-years away in the constellation Hercules, shining at magnitude 5.8 and even visible through binoculars. In 1974, the Arecibo Observatory beamed a radio message its way in an experiment to contact potential extraterrestrial life.
This is a ball of ancient stars packed so tightly together that resolving each one is a true Herculean challenge! ;-)

Astrophotograph of the Hercules Globular Cluster (M13), a dense sphere of hundreds of thousands of stars. The cluster appears as a bright, concentrated core with stars scattering outward, set against a dark sky filled with countless background stars and galaxies. Captured at Bubulcus & Bolotas using our telescope.

The Griffon Vulture (Gyps fulvus) is a large scavenger that feeds mainly on the carcasses of dead animals. These impressive birds often soar together over open landscapes in search of food. They build their nests on remote, undisturbed cliffs, usually close to areas where carrion is plentiful.

When resting or feeding, Griffon Vultures communicate with grunts and hisses. In the wild, they can live for decades, and in captivity their lifespan may reach up to 41 years. Breeding takes place on rocky cliffs in mountainous regions of southern Europe, North Africa, and Asia, with each pair raising a single chick.

While they may gather in loose groups, not all individuals behave the same way—many remain in one area, but younger birds often set out on long journeys, sometimes covering great distances.

The Griffon Vulture (Gyps fulvus) is a scavenger that soars in groups over open landscapes, searching for carcasses. They nest on remote cliffs, raising one chick per pair, and communicate with grunts and hisses. Found in southern Europe, North Africa, and Asia, these vultures can live over 40 years in captivity. While many stay local, young birds often travel long distances.

Did you know mayflies are among the oldest insects, with fossils over 300 million years old?
Cloeon dipterum is a type of mayfly. This photo shows a female in the subimago stage—a short, non-feeding phase between nymph and adult. She uses energy stored as a nymph and will molt one last time to become a full adult. Mayflies are very sensitive to pollution, so they are used to check how healthy freshwater habitats are!

Thinking about our relationship with the environment...

About 70% of Europeans can’t see the Milky Way due to light pollution. Western Europe is among the most light-polluted areas on Earth. This excess light not only hides the stars but also disrupts ecosystems and our sleep.

Let’s rethink how we light the night—for nature, and for ourselves.

The dark, star-filled night sky of Bubulcus & Bolotas with silhouetted trees in the foreground. Wisps of clouds drift across the sky, and a meteor streaks faintly above. The glow of distant light pollution softly illuminates the horizon. A caption below reads: “Minimizing light pollution not only reveals the stars but also fosters sustainability by conserving energy, protecting wildlife, and enhancing human well-being.” Styled like a photo pinned at the corners, the image promotes harmony between sustainability and comfort.
