Month 2 of Lockdown - now at level 4. Photos from within 5 km of home

 We have endured a full Covid 19 level 5 lockdown since the 26th of March and now we are finding our way through a slightly relaxed level 4 lockdown since the 1st of May. This allows us to walk or exercise within 5 km from home between the hours of 06h00 and 09h00, and it is great to be able to get out of the house.

This should allow us to find a bigger spectrum of flowering plants even though we are now definitely into autumn. Once again, this post is an incremental one with contributions from our CREW group. Under the circumstances, I am breaking a self-imposed restriction of not repeating species covered in the previous month's post.
