Very local Orchids

On Wednesday 1at June, the Hospital orchid was starting to flower. In the evening, in gorgeous golden evening sunlight, the local orchid meadow this evening, a fine pink/ white Green- winged Orchid near the middle bushes seen about 9 inches tall, a really fine specimen and not stunted like the earlier ones viewed, and another one a purple and typically stunted, seen by other side of the main path, so now up to 6 Green- winged orchids seen at this site this year, although just 2 seen this evening. Loads of 100+ Spotted Orchids were just starting to flower another visit will be in order in a few days time. However, an incredible tally of 19 Common Twayblades seen at this site, my highest count to date. The local Long- tailed Tits heard in the Hawthorn bushes.
