| | | Re: Water-crowfoot ID :) I think the crowfoot is ranunculus omiophyllus (don't know if it's got an English name) - the touching or near-touching leaf lobes give it away. Definitely not the brackish (r. baudotii) |

| | | Re: Water-crowfoot ID :) Pretty sure it's round leaved. I also found some, earlier this week.
Regards
Mike. EDIT: I think your Dandelion is probably of the section "Celtica", of which there are 35 species all of which have red/purple stems, and mid-ribs to the leaves.

| | | Re: Water-crowfoot ID :) Leifus - see my edit above for the Dandelion.
KT - I found the crowfoot in a boggy stream on the Haslingden moors near Calf Hey reservoir - I'd have no chance of directing you to it though, it's really in the middle of nowhere.
