How can you spot the raven in the cherry tree. For a more difficult one, how can you spot a canary in a field of swaying wheat. (True but too slow with the camera.)

Enlarge photo 15 Hoheneck,
Hilltop with Watchtower. The fence post holders are hardly of recent vintage. Metal clamps have superceded the projecting stone plugs for quite some time now. Irrefutable proof: Try to find the former article in any builder supply market.

Speedwell. Veronica persica or V opaca. Some plant books stipulate an enlarged, distinctly white bottom petal for the former.

Germander Speedwell. Best guess. Most plant books agree on a slightly elongated lower petal. The shown flower color varies from sky blue to mauve.

Only few seeds, one tetra pack per flower, but apparently unaffected by  auxine based herbicides. Thrives on fertilizer.
