Out walking the  this afternoon and my eye was drawn to tiny red flowers in the grass ( which is pretty high now) so hands & knees to get a good close up - flower about 1/4 inch across -

Nice shot Iain.  We don't seem to get those down here ..or I haven't seen them.  Isn't it a bit early for dragonflies? Presumable the crazy Spring?  
Saw a damsel fly yesterday but no sign of the big guns yet ☹️

It's the first one I've seen up here. We've had damsels here for the last two weeks but that's the first dragon.

I think the warm weather has pushed them on this year.

IMHO best combo for news, sports and wildlife.

It's more like a Vetch (wild pea family)

Similar to a vetch but it didn't have the typical pea plant leaves - just a single stalk. Birdsfoot Trefoil?
