Bee Orchid


A delightful evening out (with places absolutely deserted and barely any traffic on the roads during the England World Cup match) revealed a male Sparrowhawk flying over Corton woods clutching a mouse or vole. Nearby, I discovered in the fading light, a Bee Orchid near a traditional site for the species (which had proved barren for this species over the last 2 years) and 3 spikes of Spotted Orchid just starting to flower.
