Here in North Shropshire.

A view from Ercall Woods



I love this tree with the hole right through it!



Sandstone cliffs in a sea of green:



The foxgloves (digitalis pupurea) are flowering. There's an interesting connection. The 18th century doctor, William Withering, who discovered the medicinal uses of the common foxglove, was a local boy and came from Wellington,where we live.





I'm always amazed where gorse will find a footing!





And ferns seem to be able to sprout just about anywhere!



Peeling birch bark. Such a pretty thing.



Fungi and lichen in competition.



How many buttercups would you like?
