    Early Spotted Orchid, one of hundreds and hundreds, Durlston CP

    Not sure about this one as it has no markings, maybe just fading away.

    Grass Vetchling, not at all common here and easy to overlook the one small flower.

      I found a few Bee Orchids on a hill above Corfe castle, there doesn't seem to be many around and these were quite small at about 9/10".

          There were a few Pyramidal Orchids just showing which should be out in a couple of weeks, last year at Durlston CP there were literally thousands.:smile:

                      Looks like it, if it is, the seeds will stick like glue
                      Used to haul lots of linseed seeds and if you had a wet bed in the trailor it would stick hard :mad:

                        Not unusual, rather ordinary in fact, but still good enough to make me smile and get the camera out ...
