Long live the hedgerow! 🍃
Plus a bonus fungi which we are sneaking in under the guise of it being a 'fruiting body'. No further questions.
Bit hard to spot the emerging edible #fruits of the common mallow (Malva sylvestris) which some people call "cheeses" owing to the flat round, cheese wheel shape.

I was out watching birds this afternoon, and looking for wildflowers at the same time. Wilth apologies for the poor phone-at-arms-length photo: I had never even heard of, let alone seen, jewelweed before. It was growing on a riverbank, along with water mint and gypsywort #WildflowerHour
