Couple of garden volunteers

 Noticed this poppy plant had appeared near the back of the shed.

 
Then when putting the bin out I spotted this tiny fern growing in the gap between the slabs

Privet Flowers

Privet is a common sight in urban areas as hedging, but how many notice the flowers?
Not only do they look good but they smell good too!
They also produce black fruit that birds enjoy.
Privet is related to the Olive tree but I wouldn't recommend eating those fruits!
