Cliff top Lizard Orchids - a photo on Flickriver

            I have to admit that I am lucky not being affraid of heights, but in those classic words, I am affraid of falling! These gorgeous vividly coloured Lizard Orchids are growing right at the edge of tall, chalk cliffs with a sheer drop to the sea below. There is something extra special about these stunning and ususual orchids at North Foreland especially when seen against the the colour of the summer sea.....
