Okay thanks folks.
I was hoping they would be another of Veggie's wacky alliums that I could move, grow, and eventually eat
Can I move them now?
Its easy to tell the difference between alliums and snowdrops. If the leaf smells of onions................its not snowdrops.
The best time to replant snowdrops is' in the green'
Agreeing with Vinny. I have some snowdrops in the green on order, as the ones in our front garden have failed to flourish - unlike the blue Anemone blanda, they don't seem to like growing among the roots of the hawthorn.
Where are they growing? In your garden/plot/woodland/canalbank?
It really does help to identify plants.
My first thought was ramsons, but the leaves would smell garlicky. They're too long and narrow to be lily-of-the-valley. Hmm...

I know - he deleted in when I was in the middle of writing an answer!
let's hope it wasn't the after effects of eating the plant.
Firstly apologies to Veggie and Eyren for deleting my previous post after you'd replied!
I decided I wanted to get a better picture and more evidence so I popped back today.
Anyway this time I picked and scrunched a few leaves and god the smell of garlic was unbelievable!
For anyone else interested I asked what the below were, these are the original pictures as the new ones failed, doh!

Conclusion is almost certainly ramsons but I will check weekly until they flower.
What hit me was something Mark said about invasive plants, I couldn't quite believe how many of these there are spread all about the woodlands. It's funny how sometimes you don't notice something until your looking for it!!
