I particularly love The Fens for the big skies & clouds.

These teasels & hawthorn berries provided an interesting contrast with this afternoon’s sky.

Fen Violet Viola stagnina, with whitish flowers flushed with bluish-purple, overlain with delicate dark blue veins. A very rare plant of base-rich lowland fens and wet meadows in the UK.

Having lived on its doorstep (proverbially) for over half my life, I finally caught up with my local Fen Violet this week and it was just as beautiful as I'd anticipated...delicate, ethereal, just perfect...

So pleased to have Coal Tits nesting in our birdbox.

Particularly since @rspb.bsky.social say Coal Tits are not common around The Wash, Marshland & The Fens.
