Hampshire (12/06/21)

 More trips around Hampshire sites but not as much success as before.

No Red Helleborine at Hawkley Warren but wasn't sure where I should be looking.

Then back to Noar Hill for more orchids.  Highlights included my first Common Fragrant (Chalk) Orchids, Green Hairstreak, first Painted Lady of the year and lot s of Common Spotted Orchids and Pyramidal Orchids.  Also a nice Cinnabar Moth and the Knapweed Broomrapes were coming out but no Frog or Musk Orchids despite extensive searching.

Finally onto Alice Holt Forest but not much here except a Cuckoo at Straits Enclosure in the wood - I've never seen Cuckoo in a wood before!  A new moth was Light Emerald.
