Spring Squill or Vernal Squill (Scilla verna) is a perennial which rarely grows much taller than 10 to 15cm. It produces blue, star-like, six-petalled flowers from March to August. This plant is in decline and in Britain is now mainly found on the western coasts. This photo was taken on Orasaigh, South Uist. It usually grows to some extent spaced out away from other plants, but here it grows more closely together.
