Hairy Crowfoot! One of the species of Buttercup.
There are many, at least five common species of buttercup in the U.K. but many just lump them together with the name, “Buttercup”!
It is hard to differentiate between the species but one of the common ones in the area, and the one that I think this is, is the “Hairy Crowfoot”, in the species Rananculus Sardous.
Where the common names of plants and animals come from is a mystery most of the time but this one is marvellous! Where the heck does Hairy Crowfoot originate. Has anyone ever seen a crow with hairy feet?
This was next to us whilst sitting by the River Trent in Newark town centre.
For Thursdays “Colourful Nature - Orange or Yellow”!
