Old Railway Cutting

A few weeks after his last visit, David F walked along the Old Railway Cutting this week, and noted some dramatic changes.  In the intervening period, the foliage had grown to waist-high, and many new flowers had appeared, including a profusion of Oxeye Daisy, Dog Rose and Common Poppy.  The saprophyte Common Broomrape was also seen alongside the path.  David also reported seeing a dog Fox, and a number of Speckled Wood butterflies.
