On a fine and mainly sunny morning we decided to have a run out to Silverdale to see how the Lady's Slipper Orchid located in the area was coming along. According to my records it was in full flower at this time time last year. However we were badly disappointed when we got there as the plant was barely 8" high and with not a sign of any flowers. Undeterred we made our way first to Sandside for a short walk along the promenade and then on towards nearby Milnthorpe for a walk in Dallam Park and along the River Bela.
Pictures from the day are now available to view on the website for those wishing to do so.
Regards,
Dave
