What a shame about your bee photo - but keep looking and I hope you see one soon.<br /><br />The parkland does look good for wildlife doesn't it. I'll try and get Brian to come with me one weekend - there are places I will visit on my own and others I am not so keen especially when I've got bins and a camera with me!<br /><br />Best wishes CarolineRagged Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090463834740346114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8320975515799225099.post-71031278480238910222012-05-16T18:34:13.016+01:002012-05-16T18:34:13.016+01:00A lovely visit and lovely photos of beautiful bloo...A lovely visit and lovely photos of beautiful blooms too. I seem to call them Marsh Marigolds and Kingcups equally but Water Goggles is fun :-) A little frightening to see the Horse Chestnut in full flower already, the year is going too quickly! The bee photo that was still in my camera sadly wasn't a Tree Bumble Bee.<br /><br />The parkland area you mentioned at the beginning sounds like wonderful habitat for lots of interesting wildlife.<br /><br />Thank you very much for changing my blog name on your sidebar :-)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8320975515799225099.post-82581645626329501772012-05-16T16:46:45.004+01:002012-05-16T16:46:45.004+01:00Toffeeapple - its a lovely place to idle time away...Toffeeapple - its a lovely place to idle time away :) I think "Water Goggles" just has to be the best :)Ragged Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090463834740346114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8320975515799225099.post-7047301834664414102012-05-16T14:17:53.696+01:002012-05-16T14:17:53.696+01:00A wonderful meander.

I found it in a Shire Classics book called "Discovering the Folklore of Plants" by Margaret Baker bought last year at Osborne House on your beautiful island!
