The Living Forest (111) : Greater Stitchwort

Greater Stitchwort is a beautiful and pretty flower appearing in woodland in springtime.
The name originates from its ancient herbal use of alleviating a "stitch" in the side.

The visitor feeding on the Stitchwort here is a Sun Hoverfly which has as special feature that it often emits a buzzing sound when resting.
