In Bynea, the Bramble (Rubus fruticosus) had black berries and Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) was heavily in berry. In that location, there was also lots of Marsh sow-thistle (Sonchus palustris), Red bartsia (Odontites verna), Marjoram (Origanum vulgare) and Knot grass (Polygonum aviculare) in flower.
