Autumn sapling
80401025
Another image from my local woods. Most of the woods near where I live are managed plantations, full of huge, tall conifer trees. In between the evergreens there are a few deciduous trees including some beautiful old beech trees and lots of small saplings trying to grow amongst the giants. I love this little beech sapling with its curved trunk and I hope it will be allowed to grow big and tall.

One last image from the Cotswold Lavender Farm for the moment. It has been a fab summer for butterflies, I’ve seen more varieties than I’ve seen for many a year. There were so many bugs of all shapes and sizes enjoying the lavender, they didn’t sit still for long though!
Standing tall
I love cornflowers, the blue is just so beautiful and I can never resist a flower that puts its head up above all the rest!
Meadow Brown Butterfly
Another picture from Cotswold Lavender taken at the weekend in the flower meadow. One of the things I love about meadows is the huge variety of butterflies, bees and other insects, although catching them with my camera wasn’t always easy!
Summer meadow flowers
At the weekend I went to the very beautiful Cotswold Lavender where, apart from the lavender, there are areas of mixed meadow flowers. I loved the mix of bright cornflowers and yellow daisies with the occasional beautiful red poppy.
