Did you see the story about the lorry load of chickens that crashed on the A9 south of Perth last week. Road closed for ages while they chased chickens. Cue lots of why did the chicken cross the road jones.

Ach. Don’t take it down. I love the player who said “I thought we were pretty rubbish but who cares”. Got
To love Scotland.

I found all 12. 😀

I gave in too. Far too many amazing finds this year. Favourites included bird’s eye primrose, mountain avens, squill, coralroot orchid, wild onions, narrow leaved helleborines and more. Finding new plants in our favourite places and finding new favourite places.

I drove past this despicable bunch whilst driving my mum home today. Not in my home town I say. Refugees welcome.

Ah. The joys of a bus. It could well have been my pal Dougie last week. He was trying out the bus bike option with a wee night in the youth hostel. Setting of from home in Dundee.

We had a truly lovely day botanising today. So many lovely flowers.
