Jayne and I headed up to the track which skirts the Northern flank of Hacho and parked before walking up the track towards the summit but only went a short way before I started photographing the many Orchids on the site.

Species seen included
Giant Orchid (Himantoglossum robertiana),
Fan-lipped Orchid (Anacamptis collina) including a single spike of the var flavescens,
Ophrys dyris which was a new species for me at the site,
Ophrys forestieri,
Sawfly Orchid (Flor de avispa / Ophrys tenthredinifera subsp tenthredinifera) and
Southern Early Purple Orchid (
Chupaeros / Androrchis Olbiensis).

On the main track I also had a rather tatty
Large Tortoiseshell (Nymphalis polychlorus) which played hard to get a shot of but I managed one.
