Always Something to See

Saturday, July 13th 2019

Wandering around Foxglove there is always something to see.  This Common Bird's-foot Trefoil, has its seeds just developing, which gives the flower its name.

Roses clamber through the vegetation showing their pink flowers.

Walking up towards the moor through the conifers a pineapple was spotted!  It is actaully a Pineapple Gall, caused by a greenfly like insect, on Sitka and Norway Spruce.

Holes in leaves are always interesting.  Nine times out of ten there is nothing there but just sometimes there is.  These sawfly larvae are on Alder.  They didn't quite make it into their warning stance, which looks like an S shape.
