The Sussex Downs today, resplendent with drifts of blue Scabious flowers; Devil's-bit (Succisa pratensis) & Small Scabious (Sabiosa columbaria)

 The Bellflower, "The Pride of Sussex" had finished flowering on this walk today.  Its deep blue flowers are now replaced with magnificent displays of drifts of blue Scabious flowers; Devil's-bit Scabious, Succisa pratensis.

This is the view from Wolstonbury Hill looking westwards to Chanctonbury Hill in the far distance.

Small Scabious flowers were lovely as well.  Both flowers are members of the Teasel family.
