Despite this appalling weather and all the doom and gloom being reported about how our British wildlife is suffering, a few creatures and flowers are still clinging on. Undoubtedly things dont look as colourful, summery and full of life as they should at this time of year but if you look closely you can still find small pockets of splendour...
Common spotted orchid |
Small tortoiseshell and Meadow brown (sharing, aah!) |
Stinking iris |
face full of buddleia |
Pyramidal orchid |
Red cardinals making whoopee |
Emerald damselfly |
So chin up, the little guys are battling through the monsoon, so can we!
