  1. You would not believe how difficult these photos were – the Swan was feeding and constantly dipping into the water. Moving target...! 😆

  2. I called in at RSPB Nagshead yesterday and saw no wildflowers there at all. Not one. But I had more luck elsewhere in Parkend while stopping to get some food. This one looks to be Barren Strawberry. #WildflowerHour #ForestOfDean #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  3. Four small and easily-overlooked flowers from town roadsides in the #ForestOfDean yesterday (Lydney and Parkend). Ivy-leaved Speedwell, Field Forgetmenot, Hairy Bittercress and Thale Cress. #WildflowerHour #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  4. We were asked for #GardenEscapes this week for #WildflowerHour. Lots of escaped Primroses in the #ForestOfDean yesterday, growing in streets near houses that had them planted in their gardens. This one at the old #Lydney Town station looks to be a garden variety with its deeper colour. #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers

  5. Coleford Welcomes Walkers and Writers

    Forests and woodland have long inspired great works of literature such as J. R. R. Tolkien’s fascination with Puzzlewood invoking scenes from The Lord of the Rings. What better place to look for this then in a town in one of the most, well-known, and ancient forests in Britain; Coleford, in the Forest of Dean.
