Northern Days

Around Jesmond Dene in Newcastle, alien Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera) was in vogue as were Clustered bellflower (Campanula glomerata) and Nettle-leaved bellflower (Campanula trachelium). In Newton Links in Northumberland, there was lots of Common toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) along with masses of Ladies bedstraw (Galium verum) and nesting Arctic terns (Sterna paradisaea) on the shore. Also got some nice shots of a Meadow pipit (Anthus pratensis) with a butterfly.

The fungus season is also early this year with what might be a Summer bolete ( Boleatus reticulatus ) in my Loughor garden.
