Oh Yay! I can travel by bus again. And so… out to Acle and a walk to Burlingham Woods, almost entirely by green lanes and farmland

White campion: 25 June 2020
White campion was everywhere. But could only take pics where it was in the shade else the white bleached out
Poppies: 25 June 2020
Poppies too were everywhere
Ripening grain: 25 June 2020
A beautiful sight. Let’s hope the heavens hold off their summer storms until the farmer gets the harvest in
Knapweed: 25 June 2020
This really shows the strength of the sun. Phew!!!
Teasels: 25 June 2020
Teasels grow around here in enormous patches… the legacy of the weaving industry
The second half of the walk next week… cos I haven’t yet finished prepping the photos

So very green, and what a bright day! I don’t remember learning about teasels before, so I just looked them up online and added them to my world building diary for Eneana. Who’d have thought, that a flower could be so hard and spiky that you could use it to comb wool! But then, the flower resembles thistles, and I’ve had to carve those out of my backyard before. Tough, spiky buzzards they are, beautiful on top and weaponized everywhere else. 🙂

It’s the dried head that’s used, after the flowers have died

There are many places, waste grounds mostly where teasels grow in abundance. Remnants of of our wool trade
