Four wild Orchid species and butterflies near Kingswood, Surrey today.

This Southern Marsh orchid and Ragged Robin is growing by a man-made pond next to the footpath.


This clearing in the Long Plantation is great for butterflies.
Meadow Brown butterfly.
A Large Skipper perhaps.
White Helloborines were lovely to see.

As was White Campion.

In Banstead Woods we found Common Spotted-orchids.
These and the Twayblades below were a couple of weeks behind those on the South Downs.
