More from May 1st


Blackthorn (also known as Sloe). Unripe fruit.
Prunus spinosa
Rosaceae



Vetch (vicia) but I'm not sure which one
The flowers look like common vetch but the leaves don't seem to match.
Those leaves are very distinctive so it should be easy enough to identify when
I've been through a few more books
Fabaeae




Canary wharf across the hawthorn from the Butterfly Sanctuary



Russia Dock Woodland
Woodland walkway next to Waterman's Walk




Drone fly
Eristalis tenax
Named for similarity to the drones of some types of honey bees
