Balranald flowers

The flowers on our walk had been stunning and deserve a blog on their own ...the previous blog details  the walk. There will be a later blog on the orchids of our holiday...

The range of Dactylorhiza stunning, with Northern Marsh-orchid, Early Marsh-orchid and Common Spotted-orchids being present many of my photos will be unlabelled until I get back and Tom can help me with identification - especially of the hybrids! 

Frog orchids I can do though - although they do of course hybridise too! 

Common Spotted-orchid on the left - possibly var Hebridensis and Early Marsh-orchid on the right.

Wild Pansies in an arable field.

Pansies, Buttercups and Daisies.

Plenty of Daisies!

Ragged Robin in a damper area.

Biting Stonecrop.

And then we came across this field - with a calling Corncrake in it - just wonderful! 

Corn Marigolds, Field Poppies and Forget-me-nots.
