Hemlock water dropwort (Oenanthe crocata) is a quite common riverside British wild flower, which may have originated in North Africa and south-western Europe. It is poisonous, and is seen here growing in a stream in a park in Merton, Surrey, England. 'There are numerous reports of people mistaking the extremely poisonous (Oenanthe crocata) for wild celery or parsnips and dying within a week or so.' One group of fatalities involved some French prisoners of war on parole in Pembrokeshire, Wales, who were unfamiliar with the local wild flowers.
Anemone coronaria, poppy anemone or Spanish marigold, is a herbaceous perennial tuberous plant and used in traditional medicine.

Medium to tall, rather bristly biennial; stem erect, purple or purple spotted. Leaves 2-3 pinnate, dark green, but eventually turning purple; leaflets oval, toothed. Flowers white, 2mm, in compound umbels which are nodding in bud, the petals hairless; bracts usually absent, bracteoles hairy.  Fruit oblong, tapered towards the apex, 4-7mm, often purple.\nHabitat: Rough grassland, semi shaded places, on well drained soils, generally in low attitudes.\nFlowering Season: May-July.\nDistribution: Throughout Europe; absent from the Faeroes, Iceland, Norway, Finland and Spitsbergen.\n\nThis is a common Species in the Netherlands for the described Habitats.\nToxicity:\nChaerophyllum temulum contains (mainly in the upper parts and fruits) a volatile alkaloid chaerophylline, as well as other (probably glycosidally bound) toxins, the chemistry and pharmacology of which has, as yet, been but little studied. Externally, the sap of the plant can cause inflammation of the skin and persistent rashes. If consumed, the plant causes gastro-intestinal inflammation, drowsiness, vertigo and cardiac weakness. Human poisonings have seldom been observed, because the plant lacks aromatic essential oils that could lead to its being confused with edible umbellifers used to flavour food. It is, however, used occasionally in folk medicine. Animal poisonings by the plant are commoner than those of humans, pigs and cattle thus intoxicated exhibiting a staggering gait, unsteady stance, apathy and severe, exhausting colic, ending sometimes in death. \nHerbal medicine:\nChaerophyllum temulum has been used in folk medicine, in small doses, to treat arthritis, dropsy, and chronic skin complaints, and as a spring tonic. The early modern physician Boerhaave (1668–1738) once successfully used a decoction of the herb combined with Sarsaparilla to treat a woman suffering from leprosy – in the course of which treatment temporary blindness was a severe side effect following each dose (source Wikipedia).

A thread-waisted wasp delicately extracting nectar from a vibrant yarrow flower in this mesmerizing photograph. Thread-waisted wasps are solitary insects and expert predators. These remarkable wasps possess a long, slender abdomen that distinguishes them from other wasp species. With their impressive hunting skills, they capture and paralyze prey to provide nourishment for their offspring.
