We pay a brief visit to Scadbury Park (the LB of Bromley)

Somewhere to visit when the Butterfly Season hots up: despite time being very limited we managed to see a few Wild Flowers (including a single Bluebell, Ground-Ivy and Lesser Celandine), Common Carder Bees, Hairy-Footed Flower-Bees, Hoverflies and Bee-Flies.

Plus a few Lichens including Parmelia sulcata, Parmotrema perlatum, Physcia adscendens, Punctelia subrudecta, Xanthoria parietina and this assumed Punctelia jeckeri:


viz. C+ red with soredia on the lobe (underside light coloured) margins and brownish (seemingly pruinose) lobe tips. We wonder whether the orange/brown arrangements might be a Trentepohlia species?
