A lunchtime frolic among the astonishingly prolific bluebells on the seaward slope of the Vardre. This is not a typical bluebell wood, but in a matter of days this spectacle will be lost beneath a new canopy of bracken which will grow several inches daily in warm weather. The bracken is therefore a proxy for the shade of deciduous woodland.
