its been driving me mad for weeks now as i hunt down suitable elderflower trees. ive been everywhere around here, through the woods, down the edge of the river, round the parks and do you think i could find a single specimen
well ive been decorating all weekend, little one is at nana's house so while i waited for the paint to dry i decided to go photograph a fort ( cool place but could only look round the out side as its by appointment only to go in) and what do i find? 3 large elderflower trees!

all those weeks of looking, i did last year while the berries where out to but with no success , and there right on my doorstep , just a 10 minute walk away!!
typical isnt it! at least now i know where to go as theres only buds at the moment. also found several hazel nut trees , remnants strewn everywhere

so looking forward to my autumn forage, well to the summer actually but i do love autumn foraging.
