Garden of Newarke Houses, Leicester. St John's Wort, Yarrow and Ox Eye Daisies. Didn't notice the white butterfly in the centre until I looked at the photos later! #WildFlowerHour
Burdock, with flowers starting to set seed and a Common Blue Damselfly. #StillFlowering #WildFlowerHour
Hard to think of a more deeply damaging start to Burnham’s premiership than giving green light to new oil & gas in N. Sea, if true. It won’t lower bills or lead to greater energy security but will drive an even hotter planet. What a terrible signal to give to rest of the world #ClimateVandalism

Such a treat to see Sea Lavender in bloom at Newtown Nature Reserve on the Isle of Wight today #wildflowerhour
Red Valerian, a deeply beautiful, but, in some parts, invasive wildflower. Here, overlooking the Bath skyline #WildflowerHour #NaturePhotography #Bloomscrolling @wildflowerhour.bsky.social
Lots of Daisies and Ox-eye Daisies. Only a few Hawkbit, not easy to see. Couldn't get any closer because the photo was taken through railings, just visible as reflections in the windows. New Walk, Leicester. (It's 200 years old!) #WildFlowerHour
Fountain in the centre of Leicester today. The colour of the water is a similar shade to that of the grass!
A beautiful ringlet butterfly nectaring on hogweed earlier this week at the edge of a Gloucestershire field. #PollinatorPals #WildflowerHour

Flowers growing on lawns. Self Heal, White Clover, Buttercup, Daisies, Cranesbill. Lesser Trefoil in all three photos. Again. #WildFlowerHour
Surely one of the most apt flowers to find in a churchyard - Forget-me-not, Myosotis sylvatica. Growing in the churchyard of St Martin of Tours Church, Chelsfield. #WildflowerHour #ChurchyardFlowers
Scarlet pimpernel at Martin Down this afternoon and centaury at Standing Hat in the New Forest yesterday. #WildflowerHour
Photo taken recently in Leicester Cathedral churchyard. Flowers include, though not all are easy to see: Red Valerian, Herb Robert and Wood Avens. Haven't had time to look up the more obvious purple flowers. #ChurchyardFlowers #WildflowerHour #WildFlowerID
