Twin flower buds on a garden lily, shortly before they began to open.

Some of the bumblebees, from different species, which were busily gathering pollen from a patch of lavender in a front garden early last month.

Single stalk of barley, almost ripe, growing wild by a roadside well away from any fields. Very short stem, so it may actually have been wild barley.

The bright yellow of a mass of ragwort flowers, all bunched together at the top of the plant.

Painted lady butterfly unfolding its long proboscis to get nectar from buddleia flowers, encouraged by the warm sunshine a few minutes ago.

Bright crimson petals, turning to purple near the stem, on a poppy which was still wet after heavy overnight rain.
