Spring Bluebells
It’s been a few years since I last photographed Bluebells, they are such stunningly beautiful flowers, both en-mass and close up. Norfolk Wildlife Trust’s Wayland Wood is a fantastic place to see them. Spring is my favourite time of year, and Spring in a woodland is simply glorious. The first thing that greets you is the perfume of Bluebells wafting through the trees, and a glimpse of the most intense blue. Blue like only Bluebells can be, in overcast conditions a deep cobalt blue, but in the sunshine, a softer, purpler shade. This woodland has much more to offer too, with magenta coloured Early Purple Orchids, shining white Wood Anemones, bird life in abundance, Blackcaps, Robins, Chiffchaffs, Woodpeckers and more, and butterflies like the Orange tip delicately fluttering between flowers.

Lovely bluebells, but I do like the white flower image – I can imagine it enlarged and on someones wall!
Thank you! Glad you like them. 🙂
Lovely images. We found another Stone Curlew site today.
Thanks Rob!
Great pics Dawn, I can smell the bluebells from here! Don’t know if you’ve ever smelt the early purple orchid, but apparently they’re supposed to smell like a ‘tom cat’!
Thanks Jan, didn’t smell the Early purple orchids, not sure I want to now! 🙂
