Four from around #Swindon yesterday. Knotgrass from some open ground near me, Autumn Hawkbit and Guernsey Fleabane growing in cracks in my front yard and Field Scabious from the wild area at one of our local football clubs. #Wiltshire #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

Still a few Fox and Cubs flowering in the shady area by my recycling bins. We get all the best locations on #WildflowerHour. #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

The highlight of my week was probably the least impressive flowers - Field Madder in one of the wilder bits at the football ground in #Swindon I was at yesterday. #Wiltshire #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

Let's have another #dragonfly photo. This is a Common Darter, at the #Wiltshire #WildlifeTrust reserve at #LowerMoorFarm on Friday. #insects #wildlife #wildlifephotography #odonata

Did I mention there was a Lesser Emperor #dragonfly at #Wiltshire #WildlifeTrust #LowerMoorFarm on Friday? Showing very nicely right in front of the cafe. I recommend the lemon drizzle cake. #insects #wildlife #wildlifephotography #odonata

Time for a #dragonfly photo. This is Brown Hawker which had been laying eggs and had just taken off. The first time I've managed to get a photo of this species in flight. At #Wiltshire #WildlifeTrust #LowerMoorFarm on Friday while I waited for the Lesser Emperor to show. #insects #wildlife #wildlifephotography #odonata

The #Wiltshire #WildlifeTrust reserve at #LowerMoorFarm. Come for the Lesser Emperor dragonfly, stay for the plants. This one's Cut-leaved Cranesbill. #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

This weekend, when I wasn't wading through ankle deep mud at #WickhamFolkFestival, I seem to have undertaken a #Neolithic / #IronAge roadtrip of #Wiltshire and #Dorset. Pictured are;
#Avebury #StoneCircle (or rather, a small section of it)
#SilburyHill
#Woodhenge, and
#BadburyRings

My favourite of the #UrbanFlora in the cracks in the paving of my front yard is definitely Fox and Cubs. Most of the plants went to seed ages ago, but there are a few late-flowering ones in a shady corner near the recycling bins. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

You can learn a lot about #UrbanFlora just by not weeding the cracks between the paving on your front yard. A large part of my yard/driveway can't be used for parking at present because it's occupied by Autumn Hawkbit. #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

Musk Mallow is the star of the local #UrbanFlora in Swindon at the moment. Seems to be everywhere. #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

Greater Knapweed. Finally found this species in #Wiltshire - I've looked at any number of knapweeds with ray florets which turned out to be the rayed form of either Common or Lesser. At #CloutsWood, a local #WildlifeTrust reserve. #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

Long-term followers may have noticed that I'm rather fond of thistles. This one is Welted Thistle, at #LowerMoorFarm #Wiltshire #WildlifeTrust reserve during the week. #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography

Wiltshire Wildlife Trust will begin to re-meander the River Were to help slow the flow and reduce the risk of flooding.

Enough photos taken on day-trips; here's one literally from my front yard. Autumn Hawkbit growing in the cracks between paving near one of my wildflower planters. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #plantscience #photography
