Bluebell Forest

The forest floor. Cool.
And dark. In a hidden glade.
The bluebells ring out.
Today I am linking with Floral Friday Fotos and Haiku my Heart.

      I will recommend all your blogs to my friends and colleagues. I say colleagues because I'm a land use lawyer and a planner and I lthink your planning blog is very insightful and should be read by the professionals in my field.

    Beautiful meadows of bluebells!
    I love them!
    We find a lower Bluebell in Norway. At the coast, the moors, on poor soil, in forest edges and in the mountains up to 2050 meters above sea level.

    Thanks for sharing!

      Thanks! That is interesting about Norway - one of the things I am loving about blogging is finding out about the larger world :)

    How fortunate for us that these bluebells rang out to you so we could go through the door of your beautiful haiku and into their hidden glade... thank you!

      The ocean is beautiful and I love it - but the forest is mysterious, which I also love :)
