Bluebell Walk

Bluebells, bluebells
everywhere! Under the hedgerows, alongside the lanes, but most
strikingly beneath the trees, where they stretched out in every
direction as far as the eye could see. And they were delicate
English bluebells in that vivid electric blue, not those paler,
much larger Spanish bluebells that have invaded our woods in
recent years.

This was just one of
the highlights on the ten-mile walk lead by Brian Harrison on a
warm, sunny day in the middle of May. Others included stunning
views over the sunlit Wolds, occasional glimpses of Castle
Howard shimmering like a fairy fortress on the horizon, and the
deer which we disturbed and bounded away from us across a
ploughed field. But it was the bluebell woods which created a
lasting impression on this halcyon day in the Yorkshire
countryside.}
