To the Upper College Farm in search of Small Heath Butterflies

Well: despite everything being very dry we spotted nine Small Heath Butterflies viz.



Plus some Holly Blue and Small Tortoiseshell Butterflies although it was generally very quiet:


En-route to the Upper College Farm we stopped briefly to look around the (small) Grounds of St Peter's, Bexleyheath (regularly mown alas) where we saw, inter alia:

Bird's-Foot Trefoil
Cock's-Foot,
Ribwort Plantain
White Clover 
Yarrow (all flowering)
and an unusual looking (assumed) Grass viz.


And on the way Home we walked along the Rough Ground beside Albion Road and spotted, inter alia:

Black Medick
Greater Knapweed
Hairy Tare
Ivy-Leaved Toadflax
Oxford Ragwort
White Clover
and an unidentified Willowherb
