If you have had the pleasure to holiday in France this summer then you could not fail to spot the small strips of wild flowers that are copiously dotted around the countryside.
This year it is a flower mixture with Corn Cockles, Corn Flowers, Pot Marigold and Love in the Mist and for the late flower display Cosmos.
Earlier in the year the shorter flower were a mass of flowers and now, absorbing the warm autumnal sun, are the Cosmos which are not dominate the strips in full colour and overpowering the small plants.
This particular scene is on the N21 from Castillones to Bergerac at the junction with the D14 Issigeac road.
This strip was sandwiched between a Cáve which sells wines of the region and a series of large vineyards.
