Common spotted orchid

While taking shots of the damselflies I suddenly realised I was standing in the middle of some wild orchids. I have been watching out for them and it looks like they have just started to flower. This is the common spotted orchid. Another iPhone image.

So much nicer to me than the orchid you can buy, I am not keen on the formal stiffness of them, this one is softer & prettier by far!

What a gorgeous wild orchid. I haven't seen these anywhere in the wild, but I suspect there are areas on the island where they might grow.
