Wolves Wild

Overhanging the small stream which feeds the pools in Wightwick Manor garden.

Plants showing this year’s growth by the towpath of the Staffs and Worcs canal. In the top picture a varicoloured ivy leaf has landed on the foxglove.

This fish was in the larger pool in Wightwick Manor garden.

Carved into the sandstone at the top edge of Kinver, these houses had people living in them as recently as the 1950s.

The complex, on two levels, is now owned by the National Trust.

This common hedgerow plant has leaves which can range in colour from green to red, here seemingly on the same plant.

More pictures from the small bank of violets and celandines by the Staffs and Worcs canal.

By mid-March the celandines had joined the violets fully in bloom.
