Along the roadsides Blue Toadflax is in flower as is this tiny pink blossom which I've tentatively identified as Sand Spurrey.
And among the moths flying today is the Little Virgin Moth, one of the Tiger moths. The black and straw-yellow wing pattern of this moth camouflage it perfectly down in the densely tangled field grasses.
