One of the recorders for the Sussex Botanical Recording Society came along to see the orchids, while we were out she found this. One of my favorite tiny flowers.
While looking over a car park near our Bee Orchids, we discovered this little guy, more of a record shot, it's a first for us.
We also found another 12 Bee Orchids, one for sure was the white variation :)
This pram might seem an odd photo to post for me, and it is, but we have history together. We found this pram years ago in a wood, drapped in Wood Anemone in lovely condition and posted the photos. Years later its been reduced to this. To be honest I'm surprised it lasted this long as this area is used by kids a lot.
We went to visit our 'local' patch of Bee Orchids of which photos to follow, and found this rare White form. We wound up finding 3 of these variations in a close but new patch. All in all were we found only 8 last year of Bee Orchid this year we found 19, and another 16 in another new location near by, where we saw this beauty.
A few years ago I saw one near this spot, but never saw another! This visit we saw 5!! although this was the only one to land and it was up in the tall brambles for forgive the photos, best I've ever gotten though.
The next day I went back to get better shots, and counted 16!!!! but not one landed :( Still good news for this butterfly this year I think.
