Early Heather

Is your heather out early this year? On Sunday we walked on Fire Beacon in east Devon and there was a goodly spread of heather. Even three weeks ago, walking nearby on Mutter’s Moor there was a lot of heather already turning the countryside purple.

Heather on Fire Beacon

Heather from June onwards? Is that particularly early? Do let me know if your local heather is out yet – and when it first appeared.

If you want to visit Fire Beacon and Mutter’s Moor to see for yourself, there are walks routes elsewhere on this blog (see history), or on my website, http://www.johnbainbridgewriter.com.
