I have love the rambling, scruffy nature of the flora in high summer. Now we haven't really had much 'summer' yet...but last week there was a nice morning - the boat was in at Maryport, so while Steve dutifully queued up for Langoustine and fish, I wandered around....

| Maryport looking great in the sun. |
 |
| Behind the marina - beginning to dry up - just a few Pyramidal Orchids - the rest are over, as are the Broomrapes. |
 |
| Tufted Vetch and Red Clover. |
 |
| Red Clover... |
 |
| Kindney Vetch. |
 |
| Bloody Crane's-bill. |
 |
| Yeloow Rattle seedheads. |
 |
| Ladies Bedstraw and Agrimony. |
 |
| The best Pyramidal Orchids were by the road just before the lighthouse. ..and below. |
 |
| Small Scabious. |
 |
| Across the Solway to Criffel. |
