We decided to visit Marden Meadow to see if the Green-winged orchids were out. The drive over was lovely with all the greens, doted we white and blue. We parked up and walked through the field looking out for orchids. We soon found several growing in the first field, more than before and the numbers in the second field were in their thousands, as usual. We walked round looking at the different colours. Most we variations of purple with a few pink ones but we only found one white one.
Carrying on round we passed the service tree, not yet in bloom, and found some water violets with their mat of green, feathery rosettes. In the usual place the Dyer's Greenweed and xxx fern. With Robins and Garden warblers singing and the sun shining it was a very pleasant stroll.
