She stumbled across Strumble Head and looked at the lighthouse, blinking. A wall butterfly fluttered past.

She walked across the cliff tops, pink with campion and yellow with gorse, and it was then that she saw seals bobbing their heads out of the water in the bay below, and she listened to them, as they roared.

Confusingly there is sea campion which is white and looks quite different to red campion which is pink!

I have also learnt to identify kidney vetch, spring squill and sheep's bit. :)

Is red campion very small and close to the ground, and a plant that likes to live amongst green grass?

Those are all excellent names of things that you name! Gnommi is in Scilly at the moment, and was admiring names there. She posted a photograph of Hell Bay, which she took from Badplace Hill. Isn't that splendid?
