The little story

Buglens Station

Buglens Station is a field laboratory with a microscope perched on the roof and tall glass windows that let you peek inside. An insect collection is laid out with care, and a stack of books sits within easy reach of the door.

Dotty is the insect inspector and the friendly boss of the station. Dotty invites every visitor to look through the lens, where the tiniest details are having a very big day. Expect patient questions and very careful notes.

It is a curious place to share a project, a research practice or a hobby that rewards close attention. Pull up a stool, take your time and look closer.
