Showery, but dry later.
Another, slightly better, shot of the bronze Chrysomelid that is all over the willows at the moment. About 3mm long.
Heath Bedstraw - Galium saxatile - has opened, spreading its sweet, sickly smell.
Another Cortinarius, perhaps even the same one as a couple of days ago. They're about 500m apart as the spore flies.
The frog tadpoles are about 3 cm long now. Time for the legs to appear.
Northern Marsh Orchid - Dactylorhiza purpurella - has opened. The plants are very small this year and the flower spikes are correspondingly short. I'd say they're not 40% of their usual size. It looks like the other Dactylorhizas are similarly dwarfed. It must have been the very dry April that has caused the stunting.
Two (of three) Pied Wagtail chicks that look totally lost (one of the parents was feeding them). Very newly fledged, I'd say. Note the short tail.
