A spring morning

While my daughter was doing her horse-riding class this morning I took advantage to have a short walk near the stables. The sun was shining, the sky was blue and there were many butterflies fluttering around the wild flowers at the roadside. Here are some photos that I took. I have tried to identify the flowers and butterflies.

Poppy

A short post today simply to share a photo of a poppy (Papaver rhoeas) that I took this afternoon in the beautiful spring sunshine.
