Male yellowhammer May 2022 Bare limbs of ash trees showed stark and forlorn. Up on the limestone pavement of Holme Park Fell there was ash die-back. We had walked through rain and now mist and low cloud hung over the fell. But from high in bare branches came the song of yellowhammer. Their song broke through the mist and rain from all around us.
Three ringlets flew over high bracken, a butterfly undaunted by rain. Raindrops spangled the flowers of tall thistles and seeding grasses. The wet, wet spring and early summer powers thistles to overtop the bracken.
