Exhibition Six-Feet Wonders In SSNP

Photographic exhibition on butterflies and grasshoppers is opened in the gift-shop at Lera/SSNP until 20 July. The author is photographer Anja Čop who – with assistance of Stanislav Gomboc, experts on butterflies and grasshoppers – took pictures of these interesting creatures.
