the list of species continues to grow

I went down the old railway line again, as an alternative route to the next town, rather than following the road. Just before the overbridge where I left the old railway line was a plant of ragged robin (Lychnis flos-cuculi). In a field on the path connecting to the road was a plant of field pansy (Viola arvensis). A wooded hill passed by the path has an extensive colony of white climbing fumitory (Ceratocapnos claviculata); I had seen this earlier, but had failed to identify it, have mistakenly taken it for a legume rather than a fumitory.

Finally, while taking more photographs of the melilot seen yesterday, on my return, I noticed a birch (Betula sp.) seedling.
