A forest walk
We headed up Lime Kiln Lane and over to New Works then into the forest.
Things are now very green indeed although this is always a green landscape being on the west coast side of things:
The ferns are now swallowing the foxgloves:
Blackberry flowers:
Bulrushes are starting to come:
Big oaks out in the fields:
Into the forest:
The hills from the forest:
Ercall woods (it's pronounced 'arkle')
A wooden path through the marshland:
A view onto the Shropshire Plain. We have forest and hill country on one side of our little town and moorland on the other:
And that was our walk on this glorious day!

Glad you enjoyed!

(Coincidentally, I've been rereading the Cadfael books, and Ellis Peters very clearly loves the Shropshire countryside.)

Father Eadmer's Atcham is a walk from us.

A lot of the local woodland is ancient oak but we have beech and birch too.
Being westerly as well as northerly makes us very green all year round.

I see your blackberries have coloured flowers. Ours are always white. Much more boring!

They are mostly white but with a little touch of the berry colour.
