The first day of July and a quick walk to the top of Incombe hole and along Steps Hill and back through the blackthorn scrub to the car. The wet weather this year has promoted fantastic green plant growth on these chalk hills. Amongst the grass are many wild flowers, but few signs of flying insects and butterflies.

A bit closer to the hole with shining grass heads shining in the sun and breeze
The orchids this year have been fantastic, Not so the weather when I have been visiting earlier in June, but was able to get a shot of this late flowering Common Twayblade...
...and this extremely light coloured Common Spotted Orchid (at least that is what I think it is - I stand to be corrected).
