Just thought id share a couple of pics of some Cowslips we saw yesterday whilst out on a Family afternoon bimble, ive not seen Cowslips in such abundance around here for years.

Lovely to see them making a comeback.

We were only driving down the motorway today when I spotted loads of cowslips and got very excited. Wonderful aren't they

Your right about them being wonderful, lovely to see them in such a vast quantity

Absolutely masses of them where I am, and saw masses more on the A470 near Merthyr Tydfil yesterday. They do seem to be increasing somewhat, especially on road verges.
