Summer Oddities (Blackshaw Head to Stubbing Wharf)
Mondays are typically challenging for me but as Phil was unusually work-free, I agreed to a walk on a windy mid-July day. After a breezy uphill bus ride, Blackshaw Head felt positively blustery. In the graveyard, thoughtful mowing had left wildflower patches for hawkbit, clover and hardy dandelions to flourish. The latter’s off-white seeds billowed into the air. The chapel’s angular lines…

[when i think of you]
after e.e. cummings i see your bike left haphazard on the edge of the forbidden cricket pitch fringed with golden hued birds-foot trefoil and clover, sky overhead cross-hatched with vapour trails, like the lines that sketch your face now; your face then was freckled, your breath sweet with bubble gum, lips stained orange with the juice of a Jubbly (do you remember, it was the cheapest ice…

Lotus corniculatus (bird's-foot trefoil)
If I was more interested in social media approval I would never make an invasive weed like bird's-foot trefoil the star of the show. Generally, I get the most likes/hearts/ticks for pretty garden flowers, followed by interesting native plants. Unfortunately 'weeds' usually come in a distant third. Bird's-foot trefoil is a wildflower, originally from the grasslands of Eurasia and North Africa, but is now a common invasive plant throughout the lawns and roadsides of the temperate world.
'Weeds' often bring advantages to the struggle for existence and bird's-foot trefoil is no exception. As a legume it can fix it's own nitrogen and it does well in poor soil. Farmers like it as a non-bloating forage crop for livestock and it's often used to stabilize sloping land for erosion control. It's even included in some wildflower mixes because bumble bees love it's abundant nectar.
However, these advantages belong to a plant that easily enters native environments and regularly outcompetes local species. Like it or not, it is now a permanent member of plant communities around the world. Although this 'weed' may be driving many native species to the edge of extinction, I have a feeling that the bird's-foot trefoil's long-term survival is guaranteed. Thanks largely to our help.
