Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #wildflowerhour, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Creeping Thistle has delightfully furry-looking #SeedHeads. These ones seen today and snapped for #WildflowerHour.

  2. Guernsey Fleabane #SeedHeads for #WildflowerHour today. The seed heads don't last long but are much prettier than the actual flowers which look little different when open to how they look in bud. #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  3. If you ask for photos of #SeedHeads for #WildflowerHour then you're clearly going to get lots of Wild Carrot. If there's a better seed head among the UK species list I've not seen it. #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  4. Lifer! I've seen Strawberry Clover before, but always in situations where there was some doubt about the ID due to not seeing #SeedHeads. This one in the process of developing doesn't leave much room for doubt. In #Paris at the Parc Andre Citroen during the week. #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  5. Centaury stands quietly in summer rain by a pathway through Front Meadow here on World Bee Sanctuary today. Sounds of a local gathering drift across the valley as buzzards call from high.

  6. Mandatory Fleabane photo. This one was #StillFlowering on Tuesday by a path at Hadleigh country park in #Essex. Its friend is one of its #PollinatorPals - a Brown Argus #butterfly. They look rather like female Common Blues, which was what I thought it was until I took a closer look. #WildflowerHour #UKWildlife #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  7. Bird's-foot Trefoil for #WildflowerHour. Plus a Silver-studded Blue which is both one of its #PollinatorPals and also one of its predators, as its the main food-plant for the caterpillars. #Thursley NNR on Monday. #Surrey #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  8. Didn't find many #ClimbingPlants this week but yesterday I finally saw some flowers on the Narrow-leaved Everlasting Sweet Pea that grows in my front yard, descended from seeds liberated from the wild population at my mother's local railway station. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  9. I tried to tell the Large Skipper #butterfly it was late for the #PollinatorPals challenge, but it insisted on posing on this rather nice Marsh Thistle at Ravensroost Wood #Wiltshire #WildlifeTrust reserve at lunchtime, so I wasn't going to argue. #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography #UKWildlife

  10. Today's #WildflowerHour has an #InvasivePlants challenge and I was visiting my mother just before the heatwave hit, so of course I got some pics of the wonderful Mexican Fleabane which is taking over her patio via the cracks in the paving. Resistance is futile (and why would anyone want to?) #Wendover #Buckinghamshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  11. This week's #WildflowerHour challenge is #InvasivePlants. Japanese knotweed? Himalayan balsam? Triffids? Find one and get a photo, as long as we get some weather where it's safe to venture out.

  12. A small fly of uncertain species* being #PollinatorPals with a patch of Catsear at Farnham Park yesterday. #WildflowerHour #Slough #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

    * Uncertain on my part. The fly itself of course isn't in any doubt.

  13. A Wild Carrot flower with two rather fine wasps, possibly Ichneumonid types although they're famously very hard to identify. Also, if you look closely, there's a very well camouflaged spider lurking. All three are mainly there to prey on the other #PollinatorPals. #WildflowerHour #Bristol #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  14. A hover fly, in this case I think Migrant Hover Fly, being one of the many #PollinatorPals for the Common Ragwort that grows between cracks in the paving in my front yard. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  15. #WildflowerHour #PollinatorPals
    A marmelade hoverfly on elderflower, Anania verbascalis on yarrow and a wasp called Lestica clypeata (kameelhalswesp in Dutch, literally camelneck wasp) on yarrow.

  16. This week's #WildflowerHour challenge is one of my favourites - #PollinatorPals. Take a photo of a wild flower with an insect on it. Dead easy, right?

  17. Went to the local park this morning looking for flowers with their #PollinatorPals - this is Hemp Agrimony with a rather large hoverfly. Not sure what species of hoverfly, but it's definitely pollinating the flowers. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  18. This place is buzzing!

    I couldn't get any #PollinatorPals on wildflowers today but I did see this bee on a garden flower (iNaturalist tells me it's probably a kind of blunthorn bee, which is new to me. I'm looking forward to learning about it) and a lovely Herb Robert growing round the corner for #WildflowerHour today.

  19.
