Wednesday 11 March

Another cold sunny morning

We were chatting and Billy Swan got out of the water to remind me that they needed feeding

 Common Nettle - Urtica dioica no one likes to be nettled, I am always brushing near them and end up looking for a dock leaf. They may sting but they are one of the most important plants for some of the butterfly.

On the rucks, Lords & Ladies - Arum maculatum these are a little behind the ones lower down the valley.

Take Care
