19th April 2023 we make our annual pilgrimage to our childhood home to see the bluebells. But we also take in a woodland forbidden to us when we lived in the village but now open to all. Enjoy…
The gorse lets us know we’re in heathy country, despite we’re heading into a woodland
Witness: Wood Sage = woodland!
This I remember, in spring these woods were full of cherry blossoms
Ah-ha! So there are bluebells here
And Lords and Ladies, best I’ve seen this year
Ransoms: Wild Garlic. Yummy
And as we head to the street, Forget-me-nots. How could we ever!
More next week. Hope you enjoyed.
Lovely pictures

Mmmmm ransoms/wild garlic. I so miss my mother living up north. Her hubby knew where to forage (and make sure he did not pick it dry). I can just taste them now.
Lovely images, Crispina

Thank you. I was never able to trespass that particular part of the woods. No paths, all deep in leaf litter…and pigs! That’s once you were over the barbed wire fence. It was a delight to be able to walk it now

Pigs! Well, that definitely cries out for another story!
