    Great collection of wild flowers there. I am surprised how many also occur in Scotland! I spotted a couple of butterflies in there too!!

      Aren't they amazing in their variety? The more time I spend outside, the more I see. Can't believe how many of these were "firsts". So much to learn.....Glad there are wildflowers in Scotland. It's sad to think of how many fewer there are from habitat loss.
