Entomologists study the life cycles and behaviour of bugs, butterflies, moths and dragonflies etc. while conservationists actively advocate for, manage, or work to protect the natural environment, wildlife, and natural resources from damage or destruction. They focus on preserving ecosystems, biodiversity, and habitats, often promoting sustainability.

Reading about their work and listening to their talks in the winter, I love getting out in the spring with my camera when flying insects begin to emerge and focussing on their intricate structures, shapes and wonderful colours throughout the summer.
