Welcome to my summer project, a journey fueled by curiosity and a passion for the natural world. As friends from university, I encouraged a group of us to embark on a mission to document and explore the wonders of our surroundings throughout the season. From the vibrant meadows to the dense forests and tranquil waters, each encounter became a cherished moment of discovery and learning.

1. Narcissus pseudonarcissus

In the early days of our project, amidst the cool breezes and budding flowers, we encountered the Narcissus pseudonarcissus. Its cheerful yellow petals stood out against the lush greenery, drawing us closer to its delicate form. The journal entry captures its slender stem and trumpet-shaped bloom, detailing the distinct yellow corona and perianth segments. Our encounter with this daffodil marked the beginning of our botanical journey, sparking our curiosity for the diverse flora yet to be discovered.

Each illustration in our field journal represents a unique encounter, capturing the essence of our summer exploration and fostering a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
