Returning to a childhood field after thirty years, I noticed something missing: bees. What began as observation became a search, then counting. Beyond honeybees and bumblebees, I discovered tiny sweat bees, vital pollinators often overlooked. Through nature photography, I explore what is still there, and what quietly sustains the ecosystem.

What started as a delightful birdwatching trip in Poland turned into a spider-filled adventure. Lucky we were not arachnophobes.

Dragonflies are the most successful hunters in the animal kingdom with 95% of all attempts end up with a catch. How do they do it?
