Martha Flores Garcia is one of the few women beekeepers in the Xochimilco region. She is responsible for raising and caring for them. On her property, she has 26 breeding boxes, each of which can hold 20,000 bees. (Credit Image: © Josue Perez/ZUMA Press Wire/ZUMA Wire (FOTO: DUKAS/ZUMA)

'I lost my phone in the first week': a new generation of drovers in outback Queensland
Bill Little has been droving for 40 years across thousands of kilometres of stock routes. Now he's showing new hands the ropes.
Droving is the art of moving large mobs of livestock along stock routes, which are lands gazetted by state governments and administrated by local councils.
Jean who works as a contract drover. Drover Bill Little and his team are droving 2000 head of cattle along a stock route which started 50 km outside of Roma, Queensland, Australia. They are contract drovers who move the cattle from one section of pasture to the next in order to allow the cattle to have pasture over a period of four months. 18th September 2024.

SWALLOW ME WHOLE… A Barn Swallow lives up to its name as it swoops into a stable, through the open barn door. The adults are seen coming back to their young to feed them, near Corwen, Denbighshire, in North Wales of which is their second brood of the year.
Wildlife photographer Richard Bowler captured these lovely shots after a lot of trial and error, saying, “Whilst most people just call them swallows, they are actually Barn Swallows. They’re sadly a species in decline though we have happily managed to increase from one nesting pair a couple of years ago in the barn to now two pairs. The barn provides a perfect nesting habitat for swallow broods. Adult swallows are in and out all the time with beak’s full of food, from beetles to flies and insects or moths.”
“The trial and error in shooting comes down to not being in the barn myself, but getting everything set up then using a remote control shutter and guessing when the swallow is in frame. I’ve shot hundreds of frames to get the right ones which can be very time consuming but I always end up happy with the final results. I love the colours of the bird, highlighted by the flash.”

Caring for more than 10,000 animals, London Zoo’s keepers spend hours throughout the year recording the weights and measurements of the animals –information which provides a critical insight into their health and wellbeing.
The Annual Weigh-In is a chance for keepers at the conservation zoo to make sure the information they’ve recorded is up-to-date and accurate, with each measurement then added to the Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS), a database shared with zoos all over the world that helps zookeepers to compare important information on thousands of threatened species.
