Some Stubbs Green Meadow flowers by Frank Mitchell

The meadow in June is a spectacular display of Common Spotted Orchids but they are just one component of a brilliant traditional meadow. Here, as well as the orchids are some of the other flowers which go with the grasses to make the meadow. The Dog Rose is from the hedge of course but irresistible!

Dick Jeeves (Spotted Flycatcher series)

Spotted Flycatcher populations have crashed and we though we may have lost them from Shotesham, so this successful brood in Dick and Jan’s garden represent good news and hope for the future
