There seem to be a lot of holidays at this time of year especially so this year with Easter being separated from the school holidays. The May bank holiday has always been one of my favourites, right at the beginning of summer, with lengthening evenings and the promise of warm sunny days to come.
We have had days of very heavy rain and the ground is waterlogged and muddy but the forecast for the holiday weekend is good and we should at last have some summer weather. Yesterday evening the clouds cleared away and a short evening walk seemed like a good way to start the weekend.
The oak trees looked particularly golden in the evening sun.
This one was covered in catkins.
The bluebell wood was damp and dim in the fading daylight but it looked and smelt just wonderful.

I hope you have a lovely bank holiday weekend! The lighting in your pictures is just beautiful, and I loved the bluebells. We are off to a wedding today.
As always so beautiful! I love the pictures! Glad you are getting a holiday!
Sounds like you had a lovely walk! I just love this time of year in the UK. And I love bluebell woods!
So many nice spring photos! It reminds me of my home country Sweden:-)
