[🧵 1/3] South Stack is an RSPB reserve so naturally it's a great place for birds. But there's lots more besides—including some fabulous #flora. Pictured here (clockwise from top left): (Northern Marsh?) #Orchids, Cat's Ear, Thrift or Sea Pink, and Spring Squill.

[🧵 2/3] More of South Stack's wonderful #wildflowers (and a bonus #insect) photographed at the beginning of this month in the company of my brother @rob_camera.
Clockwise from top left: Sea #Campion (a.k.a Dead Man's Bells, Witches Thimbles or Devil's Hatties!), Common #Centaury, English #Stonecrop, and Sheep's-bit with a Potter #Wasp (Ancistrocerus sp.).

[🧵 3/3] This mini-thread of #SouthStack flora concludes with the fantastic fluffy #flowers of Hare's-foot Clover, which I noticed when talking to an #RSPB volunteer by a bench on the clifftop path.
New to me, this species is widespread but localised in Britain—the National Biodiversity Network has a distribution map: https://species.nbnatlas.org/species/NBNSYS0000003238
