orchid season approaches

The orchid season is approaching fast - I've got a list of sites to visit this year and I'm really looking forward to adding to my list of orchids I've seen. Keep an eye on this blog as I plan to post images and notes throughout the season ...

welcome to the orchid hunter's diary

Initially I'm setting up this blog more for my own records of my hunt for native British orchids than anything else. But if anyone does happen by, please feel free to take a look around and post relevant comments ...
