SHE
SAID:
Finally
the weather was good enough to head out. I left early, 7.30am, as Val
had a 2pm appointment that she needed a lift to.
I
decided to go to Booroomba Rocks, out past Tharwa, about an hour
away.
I
had a fruitful wander, finding 5 different flowering orchids &
leaves of another which don't flower yet. It was good to get out in
the bush again.
I
was back at Farrer in time to drop Val at her appointment, as Geoff had
another bout of Vertigo whilst gardening & was in bed when I got
back.
I
have updated my "seen orchids list". It hasn't been done
since October 2016, when Mum asked me how many different ones I'd
seen. Back then it was 194 types & now it's 242!
Diuris semilunulata - Late Leopard Orchid |
From the back |
Another Diuris semilunulata - totally different colourings |
Whole plant |
Caladenia moschata - Musky Caps |
The only Chilglottis valida flower I found, despite seeing dozens of leaves |
Tiny wildflowers |
I'm getting old!
