Quick quiz for those that have the time....  How many species of wild flower (in flower) can you see here? Bonus points for grasses...

Sorry leifus, I took a look the other day but the photo's a little blurry for IDing things (as least to my dodgy eyes!).
But I think I can make out some Agrimony and a Common Twayblade. Are those Fragrant Orchids, perhaps? There's certainly a lot of other stuff there! |

I can see all the ones listed but I can't see Musk Orchid or Wild Thyme. I think Leif is just making us believe he has seen Musk Orchid.  |

... | Looking again, in particular to its size in relation to the other flowers, it is clearly too small to be Agrimony. But I can't see how anyone could tell it was Musk Orchid! |
