Nina's Blog - Wednesday 16th August 2023

Wednesday 16th August 2023, 12:03

Went out for a longer walk today, almost 6 000 steps. Brilliant sunshine so no need for a jacket today. Here are some of the plants I saw along the way.



A pretty bindweed. There were impressive clusters of bindweed on some dead tree branches but they were too far off the path into the undergrowth to get a good picture using my mobile, I should take my Canon with me more often.

An evening primrose

Life will find a way even growing on rocks



Lush vegetation beside the ditch between the path and the field

And here is one of my favourite plants, pineapple mayweed

And it is the time for fungi as well

So beautiful, thank you so much!

@Carazaa Glad you like it. But I think that most people live surrounded by beauty that they simply ignore or don't notice. I think of the opening lines to Blake's Auguries of Innocence:
To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour
