We timed our visit to Estonia just right with fantastic weather and more importantly the orchids were at their best with the Lady's Slipper Orchids in pristine condition.

Lady’s Slipper Orchid - Cypripedium calceolus, Kilnsey, N Yorks,UK
When I caught wind of the fact that we were going to Estonia my first thoughts were not of birds but of orchids and in particular the Lady’s Slipper but as you know timing is everything in the natural world and we were a week too early and never in the right place! So couldn’t believe it when returning to the UK and catching up with events found this http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/the-northerner/2012/may/23/plants-gardeningadvice so up to my favourite place on the planet the Yorkshire Dales for the best Orchid in the world.
