The Daily Bun

Woody Nightshade

As the sun came out this morning, I put on my macro lens and went off in search of butterflies and bugs. I ended up with a long list of butterfly sightings, and a few nice photos. However, I thought I would blip this beautiful wild plant - related to a potato - as it shows both the flower and the glossy green fruit. This will turn orange then bright red, but for me it's the purple stems that set it apart.
I also came across an area where pathside umbellifers gone to seed were dripping with small birds (mainly long-tailed tits). Long tailed tit photo here
Butterflies seen were speckled wood, peacock, gatekeeper, small copper, comma, meadow brown, and red admiral.
