Chicory (1)

Chicory growing at Frampton Marsh RSPB Reserve, Lincolnshire. It's one of those plants which is hard to miss - up to around 1.5 metres tall, with prominent blue flowers. (For a closer look, see the next picture.)

As an RSPB reserve, Frampton Marsh is, of course, primarily a place for viewing the birds which are attracted to its wetland, saltmarsh and grassland habitats. However, there is plenty more of interest, such as flowers, insects, and a colony of water voles.
