Earthworks on construction sites throw up dormant seeds which seize the opportunity to flower again and bring a fresh burst of colour to the countryside such as here in Meadow Drove after excavations to lay new water pipes and the banks on either side of the trench burst into flower with poppies, ox-eye daisies and other hardy species to delight passing motorists.
