Just thought I ought to mention a correction.

In the second set, picture 029;
My mental notes of this plant had said Thalictrum cf aquilegifolium,
But when I posted it I had a brainwave/brainstorm and suddenly thought it might be Actaea spicata. More looks at it make me sure that it is Thalictrum cf. aquilegifolium.
My reason for the cf. is that it is not the lovely lilac colour that this species often is, and wasn't standing quite as tall as I am used too.

Further looks at the orchid pictures have made me a little more confident of some of those IDs.

Susan - you are very kind in saying that I am organised - but I still have a lot more pictures I could post - you may have worked out that there were originally 360 pictures - so there may be a few more that could be of interest.
