Are they harebells (although too early surely?) or bluebells? They look a bit like a cross between the two as the heads look quite short and wide for bluebells. They’re beautiful anyway and you’ve captured them really well…
I’m not sure. I’ve had a look at some harebells on-line and they seem more delicate and I don’t think they curl up like the ones in my post. I’ve seen similar flowers to harebells around the island in previous years and I do prefer them to the ones in my pictures.
I probably like harebells better than bluebells but we never seem to get them around here any more 😦 They get a lot in Scotland though – what they call ‘the bluebells of Scotland’ are actually harebells!

I prefer the harebells too (if they are the ones I’ve seen before), prettier than the bluebell.
