Lovely sunny shots RM, don't councils get fined for letting ragwort grow freely? I seen gangs of people pulling it up along the sides of the roads. The little bee is a good shot and my fav out of these.

I've heard of the stuff being pulled regularly on wildlife sites too. I think it's because toxic to livestock. I like the bee as well.

Thursday 26: ragwort control, Richmond Park. Meet at the office (Sheen Lane Centre, East Sheen) at 9.45am for a lift or 10am at the site. Stay for the whole day or just an hour or two. Bring a packed lunch; tea/coffee and biscuits, plus gloves and tools provided. Wear old clothes, suitable for the weather, and sturdy shoes. Free. For more details, ring any of the volunteer officers on

well they missed this bit just inside Sheen Gate!

Hiya RM,

Excellent series of shots, love the Bee shot but my favorite is #4

Here's a thoroughly boring link about Ragwort on the DEFRA Site http://www.defra.gov.u​k …horses/topics/r​agwort.htm (external link)

Cheers for now
Mark

they must be worried the deer will eat it but i'm sure they would instinctively avoid it? No horses roam free.

Very nice and soft light and colors though very crisp images. Good series.
#3 is my favourite based on content but I love the composition in #4.

Lovely shots Racketman

Horses don't usually eat ragwort out of choice, I had horses that had to graze in ragwort infested fields for years, but the problem of poisoning usually arises when fields are cut for hay and the plant gets cut in with it - even when dead the plant is extremely toxic for horses.
