A spurrey from #MigFest. Pretty Sure it's Lesser Sea-spurrey. Growing next to the Sea Aster just above the spring tide line at Spurn. #WildflowerHour #MigFest24

It's a good time of year for Perennial Sow Thistle, and Spurn is a good place for them. So they were putting on a good show at #Migfest24. #WildflowerHour

At #MigFest this afternoon the botanical and insect walks joined forces to look for a local speciality - Sea Aster Mining Bee. We found it. And it's very cute. It specialises in this one species of plant, which doesn't seem like a winning strategy TBH. #WildflowerHour #ento #UKWildlife #MigFest24
