Flowers, Foliage, and Flyers from our walk on 18th September 2026, all are here in this week’s Tuesday Treats.Β Enjoy
πΌ Let’s start with the flowers, though there’s not many of those now showing their heads. Yet we can always rely on Toadflax to perform π½ Ivy is flowering, all but hidden by the Holly’s magnificent display of berries
Foliage: πΌ Bracken tends to change colour early but here it’s only just turning π½ Bramble briars flash their crimson leaves as if to say ‘we’re the winner’
π½ I’ve had to google to make sure I’m right. Those reddish-brown buds are exactly that! New life appearing on this Pine
π½ While new life appears, old life decays… yet this Birch tree feeds the moss that coats it like a comfy blanket
π½ While we’re looking at trees… I’d have put money on this being a birch. And I’d have lost. It’s not native but an imported ornamental Cherry Tree. Well, I’d have never guessed that
πΌ More of those exotic-looking Spindle berries!Β π½ This Honeysuckle is in flower despite we’ve been seeing its berries these past few weeks
The Flyers! Not enough to give them their own post. Besides, I’ve something else for Friday. Something beginning with ‘F’
πΌ Male and Female Common DarterΒ π½
πΌ A beautiful, elegant Emerald Spreadwing DamselflyΒ π½ The colourful Southern Hawker
π½ Finally, with the butterfly season close to the end, delighted to capture this Painted Lady
And that, for now, is all. Hope you enjoyed.
Don’t forget to check out Friday’s post π€ͺ














I truly enjoyed this! The crimson leaves caught my attention, as they look interesting. Cute damselflies, and a lovely butterfly. You’re right, old life decays as new life appears. I’ll come up with something tomorrow. βΊοΈ
