Hedge Bindweed (Calystegia sepium) shot yesterday at the northeast end of East Oregon, off Oregon Avenue. #Bloomscrolling #Flowers #Wildflowers #UrbanFlora

An interesting Small Mottled Willow in the trap last night. Absolutely pristine condition with beautiful dark markings and three white tufts on its head...surely its bred locally, perhaps even in the garden? Also a gorgeous fresh Antler with bronze, black and cream. Stunning. #teammoth
