Blooming marvelous

Everywhere is a mass of flowers - the field behind Chalet Edelweiss is no exception. This afternoon I took a stroll and photographed a few of the thousands of flowers.

  • Bladder Campion
  • Harebells
  • Sweet Briar Rose
  • Catchfly
  • Globeflower
  • Rampion
  • Rhaetian Rampion
  • Lily
  • Scabious
  • Geum
  • Aqualigia
  • Rockrose
  • Buttercup
  • Lupin
  • Large Speedwell - to name just the above
Of course where there are flowers there are insects and butterflies equally as colourful and varied, as well as this Tortoiseshell I spotted Ringlets, Fritilarys, Whites and Blues - and that's just within a few hundred meters of the Chalet.
