Flowers under the Hill


At the foothills of the Cerne Abbas Giant in the village of Cerne Abbas Dorset is a great place to visit at the moment.
There are numerous Spring flowers in abundance.
This is just a small selection.

Mostly Wild Primroses

Red Campion


Cowslip



That is no flower.



Mostly Lesser Celandines

Bluebell (English)


This very early 'Early Purple Orchid' was barely visible and was just emerging up out of the ground amongst long grass.


A Mass of Lesser Celandines

This river below is a great place to see Grey Wagtail and in about a months time they will be flying along above the river surface catching flies for their young.
