First ones popped their heads out in Biggin Hill today.
Very early indeed, but no photos, I'm afraid.

Saw some rather sad little baby ones in Collingbourne Woods on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border.

Hoping for more tomorrow ... or there will be a C_G hissy fit. 🙄

btw where's redthunder? In his neck of the woods, bluebells appeared ... probably ... weeks before anyone had even thought of bluebells. 😉

Rode the North Surrey Alps on Saturday and the Bluebells are on the way.

Trails were fantastic but my riding skills weren't due to the previous nights town centre pub activities!

Saw a few lonely little bluebells in Wakerley Great Wood yesterday but didn't think to grab a photo of those, so this other flower that I did grab a pic of will have to do instead.

Is it just me that's finding bluebells ain't like wot they used to be? Smaller, not so rounded, not so dazzling?
