We may drive tomorrow to walk for the first time and will probably head for one of the bluebell woods we usually visit. Although they are now dying off around here, one of the woods they are often on the late side coming out, so fingers crossed. Watch this space!

This thread has prompted me to dig out my personal best bluebell shot, which I took some years ago to the nw of Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire, during a walk in the Chilterns. The air was filled with their fragrance.

As we normally associate bluebells with woodland, it is interesting to see Ninthace's photo of them growing in the open on Holwell Lawn, Dartmoor (reply #11) and Toxicbunny's one of them in North Yorkshire (reply #65).
It's something I wasn't aware they did until I walked the Mawddach Way twelve months ago, when I often saw a shimmer of blue over distant grassland. I must have caught them just at the right time. The ones in my photo below were a bit closer.

Beautiful photos.

Our Bluebells are just starting to open here in Shetland.
I have only seen them in Gardens none wild, except at deserted old crofts.
hopefully it heralds the start of better weather,
light snow showers here again today.

I hope you get to see some, they are gone from here.

I'm sure I heard that Shetland was closer to the Arctic Circle than it is to England, though I may have misremembered.
