John Keswick 119 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 The blue bells have just started to show through today in the forest, everytime i take a look at the bees i always look over the old railway banking to check, today is the first day i noticed blue.

John Keswick 119 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I did notice a few white ones too, but not too many! I think the braken seems to be taking over, i can remember years ago, the forest floor used to be a carpet of blue, but now its just sporadic patches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
