Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | Planned orchid hunting was almost completely washed out by the wet weekend. No matter, we need the rain. On the way home we managed to stop on a roadside verge at Deep Lane which has several species of orchids (including some vexatious hybrids). These Early Purple Orchids (Orchis mascula) were putting on a fine show. The hoverfly (don't know what species, but it's a male - the eyes touch) had bedded down on for what turned out to be a wet and windy night. I find it incredible that we're not really sure what the pollinators are for one of the commonest orchid species in Britain (although it's more likely to be a bumblebee than this chap). |
