We're having a staycation and spending the week enjoying Edinburgh's green areas. Today we were on Arthur's Seat. The viper's bugloss was in bloom, such an unusual and striking looking plant.
There were lots of bees around these flowers, but I couldn't catch any of them on camera... I was pleased to catch this bunny on camera, seeming to be eating the gorse flowers!

How very odd to see different colored blossoms on the same plant!

ReplyDeleteLove that shot of the bunny. I don't think I've ever seen one do that!
ReplyDeletevery pretty blooms!
ReplyDeleteOn the first day of the year I walked the hill to Arthur's seat, it was a splendid sunny day. I remember on the way up I met a nice girl who was coming down, she was wearing only a tea-shirt and blue-jeans! She said something to me but I couldn't understand her, I asked her to repeat but she said it didn't mind...she kept walking and blew me a kiss.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful and I love the cute bunny and his pose.
ReplyDeleteWonderful spot for a stay-cation! Love the bunny nibbling on the gorse.. Lots of places over on this side of the pond would like some of your rain! But stii I hope you get some sunny days during your time off.
ReplyDeleteHi Juliet,
ReplyDeleteLove all your B's and your photos.
The bunny and the flowers are really sweet.
Enjoy the week

Great pix! Many young birds and bunnies getting ready for the big world here too ...
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever bunny! And what beautiful Bugloss. We have just returned from Scotland ... but didn't see any.
ReplyDeleteBugloss is a new name for me, it is gorgeous! And to catch the rabbit eating gorse is wonderful.
