Flowers galore

3rd May. After seeing bluebells in Midgey Gill woods I messaged a friend to ask if they were out in Hawkeswood. Our friends live within walking distance of Hawkeswood. Indeed that is where we met them for the first time. They have been visiting what they call "The Magic Woods" for over 30 years. Our friend said they had been there recently and the bluebells were out! Each year when we visit these woods at this time I am blown away by their beauty. The woods do seem magical. Like an idyllic fairyland. They smell amazing too. We had had weeks of sunshine and no rain. The stream which had formed a waterfall down from the adjacent field was now completely dry. More blue in the woods was what we took to be a Blackbird egg. https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/blog/2020/05/identify-eggshells/
