I thought we had a thread for tree's, but I can't find it... so here are some tree's i got today.. This one had a wee robin at the top of it, about sixxty feet up..  Shadow's..  unusual bent branch well up in the tree..  This tree was shedding it's bark..  It was quite spooky in here, as a black [ BIG CAT ] has been spotted 5 time's in this area..  Broom is so colourful I think..  |

What a lovely day you had and those are some really nice photos, I love all the different shades of green at the moment. Now about that big cat, here is a big cat I saw the other day (you might have seen this if you were lurking last week on KM forum)  Think I'll put this one in the cats section too |

The first purple flowers look like azaleas to me george.  The second one is the flower of the Rowan tree  The third looks like a sort of cranesbill  The fourth looks like Germander speedwell ;D The fifth looks like rhododendrons Next one - buttercup  Last one horse chestnut candles - love them!  Looks like you had another really lovely day on your holidays. This is the best time of the year. |

The wee yellow one benji, they were all growing on swampy ground they all had stalk's about 12 inch's long, the small blue one's were in the same area,, I was looking for the greenhairstreak butterfly which breed in this county park, I believe it's the only known site for them in scotland, anyway I did'nt see them, how sad am I, looking fur butterfly's, I must be going off my head.. ;D ;D ;D

Not at all George! Great photos. Interesting to see what grows in the wild <or reserve> in other places. The peerie yellow one might be marsh marigold, if you saw it in swampy ground. Grows here too in the ditches.

Never work before breakfast. If you do have to work before breakfast, eat your breakfast first.
