Grangepans Wildflower Meadow, Bo'ness, created by Buglife as part of an Inner Forth Landscape Initiative project. Buglife volunteers are in the background of this picture. Amongst plants seeded there are cornflower (Centaurea cyanus) and common poppy (Papaver rhoeas), annuals which encourage pollinators. Wildflower meadows are an important habitat for a variety of species. However we have lost over 97% of them in the UK since the 1930s.

Clackmannanshire - Alloa, Clackmannan and Black Devon
Creeping Thistle (Cirsium arvense), our most common thistle, is thought of as a weed by many gardeners, due to its ability to spread quickly and the difficultly encountered in removing it. It is, however, an important food source for many farmland birds, which are facing population declines due to the intensification of agriculture. These were photographed at RSPB Black Devon Wetlands. The stem on Creeping Thistle is smoother than on Marsh Thistle, which has prickles on its stem.
