Wildflower meadows

About two weeks ago Fleur, who I know through her blog In de Polder, sent me a text saying that the fields near her house looked absolutely magnificent and that I was very much welcome to come and see. Because of an extra day off work, I was able to say yes straight away. Lucky me!  It's always a joy to spend time with Fleur and she lives in one of the prettiest places  I know.

We cycled along the tow path to a nature reserve nearby called Vlietlanden, where we parked our bicycle at a marina and set off on foot through the fields. I have never seen anything like it. It looked truly spectacular. There were Gillyflowers, wild orchids, nettles, rhinantus, cottongrass and lots of cow parsley and rapeseed. I wish my photo's would do the fields and it's abudant display of wild flowers more justice.

Fleur, thank you once again for a fabulous day!

If you would like to see more photo's of Fleur's home and the surrounding countryside. Please have a look at her Instagram account. It's called indepolder. I did a post on Fleur's home last year as well. If you haven't seen it yet, you may enjoy having a look.


Wishing you a lovely week ahead!
