The red spotted mottling, common in dock leaves, is probably due to a frequent disease which affects this plant.

It’s not wildlife, and Berkswell is quite some way from Wolverhampton, but this sign for the Bear Inn caught my eye a while back.

This particular hawthorn caught my attention because the haws were about twice the size of those on all the other bushes around.

The red compound eyes seem to make up a huge proportion of the total body size of this fly.

The leaves of this thistle, photographed a few days ago on the Cotwell End LNR, were so green they looked like new growth.
