A Woodland Walk

One of my favourite local places to visit from a Nature Photography point of view is the woodland and hillside of Cerne Abbas, which is only a few miles from where I live.


The 14th Century Kettle Bridge which is a Listed Building, which provides access to the woodland and the Hillside. 



As a lad from Somerset I have always liked to see Apple Blossom.


A flower that can be found throughout Dorset fields and roadways.


My first chance this year to observe and photograph the Orange Tip butterfly.
Unfortunately I didn't have the correct lens with me and had to make the best of a bad job.
The butterfly is pitched on a Herb Robert flower.








Common Bluebell.


Cowslip


A sound heard quite regularly now is the Chiffchaff. 
This one was directly above me and was playing Hide and seek.



A female Brimstone butterfly below was observed laying her eggs at various locations.



The Evergreen Fern


I could hear this Wren along a pathway and eventually caught sight of it for a moment.



This Speckled Wood butterfly looked like it had just emerged and was warming up in the sunshine.


Two habitat images of the relevant Orange Tip. 



The Oxlip was looking a little worn and was starting to look old.


Primrose





Speedwell (Birds eye)
