Picture by Tony Ketley (BFP Camera Club) One of the notable highlights of spring has to be when the bluebells bloom, covering grassy verges and woodlands in splashes of colour. Bluebells are found in ancient wooded areas and are protected under the Countryside Act (1981), which means it is illegal to wilfully damage them – so people must stick to the paths and take care not to trample on them. Likely due to the colder weather this year, they seem to have flowered slightly later this year – so, with lockdown restrictions having eased, it is the perfect time to enjoy a tranquil walk in Bucks’ best spots for bluebells before their short-lived season ends in May.
