Red petals still folded tightly compressed, a poppy on the point of opening recently.

A small white butterfly in the garden at Anne Hathaway’s Cottage, Shottery. It was flitting from plant to plant, settling briefly before it moved on again.

Flowers on medlar trees, some already gone over and just beginning to develop into the fruit.

Cowslip seeds, in their protective covering, beginning to develop on the top of the stem.
