Months ago this was just a very large patch of dusty,brown earth, 2 old bowling greens. I remember pelting around it to get to a medical appointment across the road from it, that was then, this is now...
the most glorious sight, a field of wildflowers in the city. I looked around and saw everyone mesmerised and so very relaxed either photographing it or just sitting on one of the benches around it.
and so importantly, a habitat for the bees and butterflies.
Close-ups of some of the inhabitants of the wildflower meadow, there are cornflowers in blue and deep pink, so many different colours of poppies as well as golden Californian Poppies and so much more to see as well as the meadow we will go back again and again this summer.
my girl in the meadow, fascinated to follow a butterfly, but still screaming beeee mummeeee when I've reassured her time and again that they won't hurt her, all they want is to gather the nectar and be left in peace to do so. She was a star as usual though, my girl.
