I don’t think I’ve ever paid much attention to cow parsley leaves, but they’re actually really quite beautiful, especially when they start taking on this red/purple colour; pictured here along with male fern and what I think is velvet grass 😍🍀🌿

Arminghall church, Norfolk.

Visited on yesterday's bike ride.

Devil's-bit Scabious, Succisa pratensis, in flower in the churchyard. Some of it has the powdery mildew Erysiphe knautiae on its leaves.

Toadflax arrived in our meadow by itself, always super happy to find a new native species has appeared. It's like a teeny two fingers up to all those destroying nature elsewhere. It is covered in bees and shield bugs.
#WildflowerHour

Flower head, bright deeper yellow and paler yellow petals with a brown shield bugs crawling across, it has dashing stripey antenna.
