The husk of the seed heads: the seeds themselves have been blown away or eaten.  Two different thistle species still show their various forms.

The butterfly was very cooperative in concentrating on feeding on flowers at eye level. These side views give clear views of its antennae and proboscis.

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.
