A walk up through the wild flower meadows at Durlston with the skylarks singing. A single swallow swooping.
On the meadows near the sea, the cowslips have already gone over, and it's buttercup season. Not very tall buttercups this year: it has been a very dry spring, less than half our usual rainfall.
Common Vetch.
Yellow Rattle.
Pale Flax.
Germander Speedwell & Vetch.
Wayfaring-tree.
