Is this Bedfordshire's first bluebell of Spring, 2016? PNL-160315-105548001

Mick and Hayley Child were taking a stroll through Salem Thrift, and ancient wood on the edge of Bromham, with their five-year-old daughter, Izzy, when this flash of blue caught their eye.

Mick said: “The wood is noted for its bluebells and Hayley spotted this one on our walk. Maybe Spring is on its way at last?”

Amateur photographer Mick quickly snapped this cheery image and shared it with the T&C.
