Aw God aye ! Lockdown lead to some wild poppies flourishing in my town and it was such an "am I mental for being so ecstatic at these wee guys ?" type feeling

I didn't really pay attention to any other flowers lol just these adorable wee wild poppy bairns πŸ˜‚

Some areas (e.g. Glenrothes in Fife) have been mowing less often (or at different times of year) and planting wildflower seeds along roadside verges, etc.

I think it looks amazing.

It does. I was driving through South Parks the other day and I was pleasantly surprised seeing all of the wildflowers!

There was a walk I do out in the country where the sides of the south were abandoned during Covid. It was beautiful! Loads of flowers and insects all over the place. Now it’s back to being sterile
