Photos from a walk in Deep Hayes Country Park today

Part of a cattle-grazed pasture with plenty of flowering Betony. 

A Nettle-leaved Bellflower that has survived the pathside strimming (not very sharp due to breeze!). 

A Shaded Broad-bar Moth which is a common species that is generally a night-time flyer though sometimes seen during the day if disturbed. This one was in the pasture where I assume it fed on legumes, such as Bird's-foot trefoil when it was a larva.
