More Exmoor stuff!

For my education I'm going to try and give the full names of plants I feature, relatively easy for the flowers, particularly if the have garden-relatives to give a clue to their identity. I may admit defeat on grasses and fungi such as the extraordinarily patterned bracket fungi on a silver birch log and the lichen, on beech trees at the medieval village near Exford confirming, if necessary, the clean air.





Ivy-leafed Crowfoot, Ranunculus hederaceous, a nice little watery buttercup-cousin.

       

Above is an unusual colour variant of the normally near-white, below, of wood sorrel Oxalis acetosella near Watersmeet, Exmoor
