Wooded Wonders PLUS video

Walk with me through the wood at Strangford and savour 
the wonderful delights I found along the way.






New Sycamore Leaves

From the wood Istill could peep over the wall and look at the sea

Buttercup - Ranunculus acrus

Bluebells with Wild Garlic

Green Veined White Butterfly



"Look Bluebell, I told you we were beautiful"
As I finish my walk I see the ferry waiting to take us across again to Portaferry
As promised, below is a short video as I travelled on the ferry from Portaferry to Strangford.  Notice the fast flowing tide and many currents and when we pass a small island, there are Common Terns and Black headed Gulls nesting there.




Thanking you for visiting my blog and joining me on my walk and ferry journey.

    What incredibly beautiful photos..your forests have much more colour than our area. I enjoyed your video, that was fun. I spent many years riding them in British Columbia between the two islands I lived on and the mainland, kind of made me homesick (in a good way). Beautiful blog!
