Clump of cowslips, Barley Field

The Barley Field in the Smestow Valley Nature Reserve has been developed as a wildflower meadow. With the cold and damp weather this spring, there hasn’t been much of a show of wildflowers.

The blackthorn hedge around the field has put on its usual display, visible in one of these shots. Then, late last month, cowslips started flowering.
