Orchids in East Sussex 24/6/13

A great morning out visiting many Orchid sites along the downs. A total of 9 species were seen, but surprisingly I couldn't find any Bee Orchids despite seeing some last year in various locations.

Totals are:

Man Orchid - 1 (courtesy of Peter Whitcomb)
Fly Orchid - 6
Greater Butterfly Orchid - 50
White Helleborine - 14
Fragrant Orchid - hundreds
Early Purple Orchid - 1
Twayblade - hundreds
Common Spotted Orchid - hundreds
Pyramidal Orchid - 3
