Son Real Majorca - Orchid Hunting

We hired a car for 2 days and our second day finished at Son Real, an archeological site that is also famous for its orchids. With only a limited time and a very large area to cover, I was quite pleased to find 5 different orchids - three of the Bee orchid family (Ophrys), a Tongue orchid (Serapias lingua) and one of the Orchis family. Also included, four typical plants of the area, Asteriscus maritimus, Echium sabulicola, Asphodel aestivus, and Arisarum vulgare (relative of our Arum lily)
