Clouds often have Silver Linings

We caught the Bus whilst en-route to the River in the Erith area.

The Bus Stop we usually alight at was closed and the Bus stopped 150 or so yards further along the Road beside some Rough Ground.

Our initial annoyance faded when we found a patch of Red Dead-Nettles growing there with a couple of visiting Hoverflies (Episyrphus balteatus) viz.



And found another Hoverfly (Episyrphus balteatus again) on a Dandelion viz.


We also found a flowering Prickly Sow-Thistle (we don't see too many of them) viz.


So: another Cloud with a Silver Lining.

Other Plants growing on the Rough Ground included Fat Hen and Smooth Sow-Thistle.
