To Erith Pier to look for Lichens &c. (Grid Reference: TQ5178)

In addition to seeing some Lichens we were pleased to see that the Jersey Cudweed, seen on previous visits, is still in-situ. 

But we got a mighty surprise when we spotted assumed Wild Radish viz.


Wild Flower' Species seen on the Pier included:

Black Medick
Black Nightshade
Bristly Oxtongue
Common Chickweed
Dove's-Foot Crane's-Bill
Greater Willowherb
Jersey Cudweed
Prickly Lettuce
Shepherd's-Purse
Sow-Thistle
and Wild Radish (just the single Plant)

Lichens seen included:



We think the above might be Caloplaca saxicola.


Assumed Xanthoria parietina above.


We assume the above to be Lecanora muralis.
