I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

This Elderberry's suffered over the decades but it's hanging in there. The younger trees are dying, parched.

Early Gentian. Tiny, challenging to find. Make Snowdrops look like Sequoia.

First #orchids of the year! Green-winged and Early Spider, just a few yards from one another.
Sat on my first Thistle too...

We eventually reached the coastline, with a view towards the lighthouse at Anvil Point.

Climbing out of Swanage and into Durlston Country Park and Nature Reserve on this very bright and sunny day.
