On the way to the heath, that blue tree again.10:18:45
Part way up Parliament Hill.10:22:42
Still not quite sure what this blossom is - something like wild cherry / hawthorn / blackthorn but not quite.10:24:57
Erika atop Parliament Hill.

The view down into central London. Nice clouds.10:25:37
10:27:11
In the den building area, a den Erika and her classmates had previously worked on a couple of months back.10:29:16
Bit out of focus but I think these are going to be blackberries?
10:30:06
An attractive blossom.10:30:10

Exploring the jungley bit with Erika. There are some surprisingly dense thickets on the heath with little windy paths going through them, and this was a real mini adventure.
10:40:41
10:43:30
Is this wood ear fungus?10:45:24
A bit like forget met nots, but too tall...?10:47:13
The view after emerging from the jungle.

Back at home, later on, another wine delivery arrived - including a couple of bottles of the really weird and unique Monnow Valley Brut (2004!) which I'd tried at the Welsh sparkling wine tasting I organised last summer...18:50:27
...and also some interesting Burgundy.19:02:15
A glass of the Nuit St Georges out in the garden. A very mixed weather day, but quite pleasant between the heavy showers.19:05:58
19:09:37
Blueberries starting to form!20:54:58
Attempted to take a picture of the moon later on.20:55:58
Just about worked after much fiddling with camera settings, but not really amazing.20:58:05
21:05:51
I quite liked the light shining through the vine leaves here.
