Did you know that in Slovakia, colorful parrots with turquoise bellies hatch in the wild in the spring, and not just in cages? Do you know how many centimeters the passage to their nest is? Do you want to see them with your own eyes? Did you know that orchids grow in our country not only in pots? Do you know what our most poisonous beetle is? And have you ever heard of the spider that has a button on its back? Did you know that goats will never eat our medicinal herbs and why are they so important to Sandberg and Wait's quarry? I will tell you and show you all this, and in addition, we will also touch on the 7000-year history of the Devín area from the Neolithic period, through the Avars, the Celts, the Romans, the Frankish merchant Samo, who was probably neither Samo, nor a merchant, nor Frankish, through Magna Moravia to the present day.
