The wild flowers are currently in profuse array. The road verges have pyramidal orchids whilst the Downs are ablaze with bird's foot trefoil. Although each flower is quite small the collective spread of yellow is overpowering. The viper's bugloss provides a stark contrast with their spikes of vivid blue flowers. Then there's the pink of the mallow and valerian.
There are several other flowers that I am finding hard to identify, some are very small but when seen close up are very intricate of flowers, their diminutive nature hiding rare beauty.
