Well, today actually felt like summer might just be around the corner. We had sunshine and a light breeze. Perfect for getting out on a walk and even better, I don't work Wednesday afternoons, which meant that I had some time to get out along the hedgerows.
I'm pretty useless when it comes to identifying wildflowers, so I thought I should become a little better acquainted with the flowers in the hedgerow and verges where I live.
Some I know, some I don't. but what I do know, is that luckily, they are growing in abundance and it was such a lovely sight to see.

Lovely flowers and a real vareity. I'm slowly learning more flower names with much poring over guidebooks. Love the pic of the orange tip butterfly - I've seen lots but they have a knack of knowing exactly when I'm zooming in for a shot and flutter off! x
ReplyDeleteIt's a bit blurry as he was just about to fly off too. There were also a few other cabbage whites and a tortoiseshell, but they evaded the camera!
DeleteBeautiful pictures. I can name most of you pics I think. I was taught the names of wildflowers flowers by my mum, think she was taught by her Aunty Emmy.

I know a few of them, but get muddled up at times, as myself, mum and grandma all call some of the flowers by different names. I shall have to study them!
DeleteWhat a lovely afternoon enjoying the wildlife and flowers! xx
ReplyDeleteI thoroughly enjoyed it and was just grateful for a sunny day.
DeleteCountry lanes in late spring are one of my favourite things!
