Looking at the photo below, can anyone see any obvious edibles, maybe enough to make a wild salad or a mug or three of tea? (click for full res version)

Not necessarily all edible or drinkable for that matter, and it's not easy to make them out in detail on my tablet, but I think I can see:

Yarrow
knapweed
st john's wort
hawksbit
meadow vetchling (or birds foot trefoil)
ribwort plantain
sheeps bit scabious
cleavers

and possibly, selfheal.

agree with most of the plants but its not sheeps bit scabious, its either small or field scabious
small umbellifer will be burnet saxifrage, not yarrow. looks like calcareous grassland so you might find salad burnet in there - leaves quite easy to iD and taste of cucumber
