It was good to see the butterflies in #WandleburyWoods yesterday, if only fleetingly - this Peacock lingered just about long enough for a photo

Two white flower finds new to me today, hopefully correctly identified as Shepherd's-Needle (Scandix pecten-veneris) on the left and Garlic Mustard, also known as 'Jack-by-the-hedge' on the right; growing next to each other in #WandleburyWoods #Shepherds-Needle #GarlicMustard

As I understand it, an Oak Apple gall of the gall wasp Biorhiza pallida, many developing on the oaks in Wandlebury Woods; formed after the wasp lays eggs inside leaf buds & the plant tissues swell as the larvae of the gall wasp develop inside
