It was a lovely sunny day and I'm glad I managed to go because my friend and I were welcomed with the bluest of Bluebell carpets!
But first, lunch!
A massive vegetarian burger at the Retreat tea rooms.
It was delicious! And very filling!
After a small shop round Grassington village, we ventured on towards Grasswoods.
At first, the Bluebells were far and wide...
Then they became a bit more dense in amongst the trees...
Up close, the flowers are beautiful. All varying in shades of blue and purple.
All of a sudden, the woodland floor was thick with blue. It was hard to make out individual flowers!
Blue surrounded us and we were engulfed in a thick blanket the further we walked into the wood.
To top off such a fantastic day, was the finding a Tawny owl chick being carefully watched by its mother.
We weren't sure on the gender, but as it was surrounded by bluebells, we named her Bluebell.
