Green Alkanet

Pentaglottis sempervirens

I notice a lot of us are blipping this wildflower at present.  I think it's spreading at pace.  In my much loved, but now rather old (pub 1974) field guide it is labelled rare in Britain.  It's certainly not rare now!  And what a wonderful blue those flowers are..

Goodness, it does seem a long time since I've been to the reserve.  This has partly been from tiredness, but today and tomorrow morning Hazel and I have been on our own as K is visiting a friend.  This means I have been blipping wildflowers (which stay still) while Hazel (who doesn't) has tugged on the lead.  Still, I liked this shot, so here you are ;))

And tomorrow I'll be naming my favourite from WFW22_08.

Thank you for all your kind comments, stars and hearts on yesterday's, I'm so glad you liked it.  And take care of yourselves, lovely blippers  xx
