Brunch

A brief field visit Thursday, bacon rolls from Mickey Broxton's on the A41 and a picnic in the Landrover along the hedgeline.
August's mixed weather has brought the grass on quite well, although the buttercups are recovering a bit too - at least I got them mown before they'd gone to seed.

A walk along the hedges and trackway revealed a plum or damson tree doing rather well - quite a lot of dark purple fleshy fruits, quite pleasant to eat too.
This is at the same ground level as the field and growing out of the bank of the ditch, so I'm not too cautious now about creating the informal orchard area...
