As this is a crusty fungus looking like curtains and hairy I'm guessing it's Hairy Curtain Crust (aka False Turkey Tail), Stereum hirsutum, sharing a fallen tree trunk with Herb Robert at Anglesey Abbey near

High up on the Malvern Hills a weevil on Gorse so ought to be Exapion ulicis, Gorse Weevil! Must have a good grip as it’s windy.

In Cambridge Botanic Garden today on raked earth beneath specimens of Prunus, Quercus and Xanthoceras in front of the Glass Houses found these Field Birdsnest Fungi, Cyathus olla, I think. But beware looking under Eucalyptus urnigera (lower right) as its fruits are urn-shaped imposters!

Close-up of Tansy, Tanacetum vulgare, photo bombed by a tiny grey moth. Might be feeding or more likely just sheltering from the wind. Near The Sluice Minsmere.

@petersketch Just thinking out loud, but could be better here as any time on a Sunday rather than the specific hour? So more like ? Either way, it would be great to see everyone’s wildflowers. 🌼😊
