On Monday 1 Jan 2018 at 10 am three members of Craven Conservation Group went for a walk / route march to visit the highlights from previous years. David Fisher, Ann Craven and I. We found 22 species in flower.
I sent in the results that evening to BSBI and felt happy that on Day 1 of the New Year I had achieved something.
This Lesser Burdock is not in flower, but by the time (at Dave's suggestion, thank you Dave) I had examined it, it had left its hooked involucral bracts on my coat, bag and red pompom hat. Huh.

| See it was a somewhat moist day. |
 |
| The Red Valerian was really struggling to be seen in flower. |
 |
| The churchyard supplied its usual daisies. |
 |
| Yes, a small plant of Thale cress. |
 |
Once onto the industrial estate we found a large area with
Rue-leaved-saxifrage (though none in flower elsewhere) |
 |
Further along in the lorry park a driver
told us about Dog Daisies.. and we found two. |
 |
| Senecio viscosus - Sticky Groundsel |
Thanks Dave, Ann (and briefly Chris Taylor) for taking part.
