Out today on a hot morning, peaked at 28C, for an off road ride around the Isle of Purbeck from Swanage. I am planning to film the routes on my site https://www.virtual-swanage.co.uk/things-to-do/sports-and-activities/cycling so need to get my fitness back again #cycling #mountainbiking #purbeck

Here's a wider shot of a southern marsh, with (surprise, surprise) Southern Marsh Orchids. Oh, and cotton grass, naturally. When I spot a bit of bog like that, can't resist getting into the squelchy bits for a closer look.

Greenland has been in the news a bit lately, so we took a toddle over today to see what all the fuss is about.

Friends coming round for dinner this evening, so posting a bit early for #WildflowerHour

Not a flower yet, admittedly, but most botanical excitement this week was finding this Early Spider-orchid rosette at Durlston Country Park, first I've seen this year. There will be thousands of them in bloom in a few months. Nationally rare but locally abundant in #Purbeck, #Dorset, and very wonderful. A promise of spring.
