30 Days Wild Day 12 - Wood Avens

A busy day round home.  Nothing of particular interest.

Still sticking with the 30 days wild challenge I had a wander looking for blips.  Looking for blips in this challenge is I find really making me look closely at the wildlife around me.  I had expected more birds and insects to feature in the blips.  However avoiding the garden is meaning birds are not predictable and I have never found insects easy.

Wood Avens (Geum urbanum) is a plant of shady woodland edges and hedgerows.  Seeds are spread by being caught in animals fur.   In the past the roots were used a flavouring for ales and as a spice.
