Didn't have much time today and looking at my target of 1000 species in a one kilometre square I thought I better get my finger out.
The idea was a quick walk around the fell but I never got further than the South Burn Woods as I desperately checked everything for new species.
The result was two species of Moss, 23 species of Flowering Plant, three fungi including a couple of Rusts and the Good old Common Frog.
202. Hypnum cupressiforme (Cypress-leaved Plait-moss)
203. Ulota crispa (Crisped Pincushion)
204. Bellis perennis (Daisy) - must have missed this one
205. Cirsium arvense (Creeping Thistle)
206. Cotoneaster horizontalis (Broom)
207. Deschampsia cespitosa (Tufted Hair-grass)
208. Epilobium hirsutum (Great Willow-herb)
209. Fragaria vesca (Wild Strawberry)
210. Hyacinthoides x massartiana (Hybrid Bluebell)
211. Juncus inflexus (Hard Rush)
212. Leucanthemum vulgare (Ox-eye Daisy)
213. Linaria purpurea (Purple Toadflax)
214. Meconopsis cambrica (Welsh Poppy)
215. Pilosella officinarum (Mouse-ear Hawkweed)
216. Plantago major (Grea Plantain)
217. Quercus petraea (Sessile Oak)
218. Rubus idaeus (Raspberry)
219. Sagina procumbens (Procumbent Pearlwort)
220. Salix caprea (Goat Willow)
221. Stachys sylvatica (Hedge Woundwort)
222. Euphorbia peplus (Petty Spurge)
223. Veronica arvensis (Wall Speedwell)
224. Veronica serpyllifolia (Thyme-leaved Speedwell)
225. Cytisus scoparius (Broom)
226. Angelica sylvestris (Wild Angelica)
227. Puccinia punctiformis (Creeping Thistle Rust)
228. Milesina carpatorum (Male Fern Rust)
229. Bulgaria inquinans (Black Bulgar)
230. Rana temporaria (Common Frog)
Thats Ok but I need the temperature to warm up to start getting some invertebrates. I've got a few things in pots in the fridge to check from today and a few Lichens and Mosses to look at but they are going to have to wait.
I have one other thing in the bag, that moth from the other day. I'll tell you about that tomorrow.
