Fern seed, more accurately spores, along the undersides of the leaves of the plant.

Robin standing on a tree stump, a favourite perching post at the side of the main path parallel with the stream through Baggeridge Contry Park.

Shaggy parasols. These were growing at the back of the hedge along the Bridgnorth Road, right on the Wolverhampton / South Staffordshire border.

Devils bit scabious in flower at Baggeridge Country Park, attracting lots of insects to feed. A large patch of the plant in the marshy area at the back of Toposcope Hill was getting honey bees from the hives, as well at plenty of hoverflies.

Spider’s web supported by nettles hanging over the bank of the canal near Newbridge. The web was decorated with seeds from the nettles. The whole thing was catching the sun, making it stand out against the darker water behind.

Sloes, ripening on the bushes which form the hedge between the Barley Field and the Smestow Valley Railway Walk.
