Crinan Canal

Greater Butterfly Orchid

We left the car at Bellanoch Bridge and took the local bus back to Lochgilphead so that we could walk back along by the loch. The bus was empty - the driver said that he rarely had any passengers. A really nice walk, flat of course, with lots of flowers, a good variety because the silt from canal was thrown onto the banks creating a fertile habitat.

Saw this lovely great butterfly orchid and got some great photos of a golden ringed dragonfly.
