Ashridge Chalkhill Orchids (pt 2)

Another two species from last summer found around Ivinghoe Beacon and Steps Hill

The Common Spotted Orchid

Beautiful colours.......
.....complimented by a jewel like beetle (Oedemera Noblis male)

Easily missed, the Common Twayblade Orchid, with its light green flowers on its single spike....


.....The detail of the flowers hide a secret, little green men.
