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.

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! ;-)

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.
