We
went out for a drive today; a last minute decision after we spent two
days hiding from the chilly weather. Firstly
we headed for Rockvale, a "no horse town" in the middle of
farming country. Then it was onwards to the Cathedral Rock National Park, another park on my list of
orchid spots to check out. We walked along the Warrigal Track from the Native Dog
campground & we found masses of orchid leaves. Three different
varieties; several seeding Greenhoods, meaning the flowers were still
present but browned & shrivelled.
Next
stop was the main area walking area for the Cathedral Rocks, where
once again many orchid leaves were found, but sadly no flowers seen.
It
was a late lunch back at the house & a quiet afternoon in front
of the blazing fire.

HE SAID:
The first part of our bush walk was rather tedious, as the land was so dry. But around the hill, on the shadier, moister side, hopes were raised for an orchid find. Evidence of orchids was plain, but not what Varena prefers i.e. flowering orchids. Oh well..
