@Gillian24448105 Don't think the goats will have an adverse effect but not sure they will control it that much either? I suspect there might be some control by agencies if it is too problematic, but birds will be spreading it from gardens, etc.

@PJNezzz @Michell27802876 It's Tansy.

@bigmeadowsearch Well that's quite a revelation. I've certainly never seen them on it.

@formula1_m Moth rather than butterfly. Very attractive.

[Neil Armstrong @NeilArm22919222]

@AngelikaHTCG @lizzie55119920 It is.🙂

@GarethDavies007 What a pathetic individual you are! Clive is wonderful from a white guy! small-minded bigot!

[Neil Armstrong @NeilArm22919222]

@Sea_Penguin5 Not a beefly but an Eristalis sp (perhaps E. tenax) hoverfly. Sometimes called droneflies-perhaps what you meant?🙂

@1DavidElston How depressing! I'm sure you'll get a few tough colonists before too long.

@craig_ger Looks more like Reseda lutea behind?

[Neil Armstrong @NeilArm22919222]

@Ralphs_Ian @TrisNorton @BSBIbotany This or similar was found in a Brentford street, west London last year I believe, which I think was the first UK record.

@WillLeoHawkes @dgcountryside @europebutterfly @j_chapman2 Are you sure about eating Fennel? Online resources only seem to mention the family Oleaceae such as Olea, Phllyrea & Ligustrum. Smart moth for sure.

@Daphne_Meadows_ Agree with L. glaucia. Nice!

[Neil Armstrong @NeilArm22919222]

@GaryWVC76 @bugmanjones Think that must be out of date as a friend has recorded it several times in a cemetery behind Charing X Hospital, Hammersmith.

@Roger_TL45Y I see this quite often near where I live in the west London suburbs as a pavement weed along with Digitaria sp & the now ubiquitous Polypogon viridis.

@donnarainey4 Love the shot with the posing Sericomyia silentis hoverfly.

[Neil Armstrong @NeilArm22919222]

@CRofcourse @fungi_flowers Is this not Frogbit, Hydrocharis morus-ranae? Plenty of it outside Princess of Walews Conservatory yesterday when I was there. Alongside Nymphoides peltata.

[Neil Armstrong @NeilArm22919222]

@MerielGJones @wildflower_hour Yes it is.🙂

@domen_stanic What is the Centaurea sp that the Satyrus is on?
