Deforested Heath.
Dull with showers. |
Our largest slug, Arion ater, is enjoying the current humidity. |
Carex Nigra - Common Sedge - is just starting to flower. |
Mitrula paludosa - Bog Beacon - grows on floating vegetation, usually Pine needles. It also likes dark locations: the second shot was taken using flash.

The female flowers - and future cones - of Scos Pine. |
This looks like the hybrid between Water Horsetail and Field Horsetail. It was growing in the water under the Mitrula paludosa, but has rudimenatary branches. Both parents closeby.
