Bluebell hunt?

 Today I went looking for Bluebells by the River Wansbeck...


I came down from behind the bridge...

...The River was quiet...
...apart from the occasional duck!

Onwards!
Normally, when there are bluebells out, this is where you start seeing them...
I hoped this was not all there was!

Beam me up Bluebell!

I started to see a couple of clumps.






I cut up a cycle path where there is a secret grove...










This was more like it!













I turned back at the fallen tree.


At least there were a fair number on the cycle path, but not the usual mass, maybe next week?...

August 2019 by the river

Today, I went by the river Wansbeck. It was a very bright and hot day!


A view from the road bridge towards the rail bridge.
 Upstream view
 Along the bank, bright it was! 








'A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare. ' 



  
  








   

  
  

I hope you enjoyed the walk! It was so bright my camera had trouble coping!
