Flowers of the Shorefield

English stonecrop (Sedum anglicum)

Water Avens (Geum rivale)


Ragged robin (Lychnis flos-cuculi)


Spotted orchid (Dactylorhiza fuchsii) with meadow buttercups (Ranunculus acris)
 Flowers pictured during a ramble through the Shorefield on Sunday afternoon.  Bird species that we saw appearing to hold territory included Whitethroats (feeding young), Oystercatchers, Lapwing, Common Gull and a pair of Arctic terns.  We also saw Eider, Redshanks, Rock and Meadow pipits, Goldfinches and Linnets.
