Una toma abierta, para incluir el colorido primaveral de las praderas y las escobas en flor. El discreto protagonista es un bisbita alpino, que como todo este grupo de aves suelen pasar desapercibidos y en este caso mas si cabe, ya que su habitad natural son los prados alpinos, por encima de los 1500 metros de altura. Tomada en la montaña leonesa esta primavera. Saludos

It was good to see a group of Dunlin together with Ringed Plover searching for food amongst the seaweed on the shoreline at Lepe eralier this week.

 

Thank you all for your kind responses.

Pinguicula alpina (Lentibulariaceae) 147 22

 

Pinguicula alpina (alpine butterwort) is a species of carnivorous plant native to high latitudes and altitudes throughout Eurasia. It is one of the most widespread Pinguicula species found in mountainous regions from Iceland to the Himalayas. Native to cold climates, it is a temperate species, forming prostrate rosettes of green to red leaves and white flowers in the summer and a tight hibernaculum during winter dormancy. Like all members of the genus, Pinguicula alpina uses mucilaginous glands covering the surface of its summer leaves to attract, trap, and digest arthropod prey.

This species grows from sea level in northwest Siberia to altitudes of up to 4,100 m in open, sunny locations. The plant prefers wet soils such as seeps. It is typically found in subalpine seeps or bogs or alpine rock meadows.

Pinguicula alpina is a small perennial herb, reaching a height of 5–15 cm when in flower. Pinguicula alpina only begins flowering after several years of growth. Six to eight (occasionally up to 13). Its flowers are borne singly on unbranched inflorescences.

These daisies were growing among the rocks and snow on the Schneehüenderstock at 2650 metres.

I think they are Leucanthemopsis alpina.

Clematis alpina is found throughout Central Europe, and there is a subspecies with white flowers found in northern Norway, Finland, and Poland.

It grows in rocky mountain woodlands and on the edges of pastures where it clambers over other plants, often creating magnificent cascades of flowers.
