1 Birkenkopf The hard way to create a recreational Acropolis. Cart all the rubble left by war time destruction and dump it in one place. (The mountain did already exist, it was just 'recapped'.) - The quoted number of missions is meaningless. Damage before summer 1943 will have been minimal. Exponential growth is a fact of life.
2 Birkenkopf the eponymous birch

4 Birkenkopf No daytime silver crescent. Shoulder riding familiars always enhance the general impression.

17 Birkenkopf Backdrop landmark, Millenium Hotel. The M-name is a more recent update. Particular location somewhat airport related.

23 Alliaria petiolata and Geranium pusillum Garlic Mustard (white) and Small flowered Cranesbill (mauve). 'Pusillum' is related with 'pupil' (both meanings), 'pullet', 'pollo', 'puppy' and 'foal'. Any small sized farm yard animal will do. 'Paula, Paulus', the lesser born, younger offspring. The neo Latin word for rear view mirror should be 'pauloratum' something. The instrument which makes everything look small.
24 Anthocharis cardamines Orange tip, related with Cabbage Butterfly. Even the same size.
