Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

This is Lady's Smock, also known as the Cuckoo Flower as it flowers at the same time the first Cuckoos arrive. It's a beautifully delicate little flower, and this one has self seeded in one of my pots on the patio. I didn't know what it was called until Countryfiles blipped some the other day with an Orange Tip butterfly feeding on it. So may thanks Countryfiles for improving my knowledge of wild flowers by one.
