@mothiduk.bsky.social I don't suppose you fancy having a crack at this bedraggled Burnet? Not far from Tice's meadow. Meadow vetch, Red Clover and Greater birds-foot trefoil present. Damp meadow on Surrey.

I managed to go for a quick 15 mins walk before picking the youngest up from preschool. I got caught out in a storm and was soaked to the bone. However, I did see a lot of Common Spotted-orchid, Dactylorhiza fuchsii. @bsbibotany.bsky.social

@ilichenmoss2.bsky.social Great to see you in the news today. Congratulations! BBC News - 'Killer fungus' could be good news for habitats decimated by invasive moss www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
