Got a blue sky day - super windy to start- feels like September
Walked down to Blackbutt Creek - local gardens have the English garden feel - bluebells
A flash of spring too - no idea what they are other than garden flowers
House for sale at the end of the street - right next to the golf course - a super quiet spot
Mission today- chiloglottis orchids. First colony is interesting - the longest flowering flower is still open. The other three have closed up shop already
One still to open up shop
What orchid is that? Calli go half way down the labellum - suggests chiloglottis trapeziformis
A bit of photo play - two flowers in frame. Choose your focal point
One focal point
Testing ID - a few more calli below the centre line
First bearded orchid on this track this season - calochilus paludosus. Clue is the tape below the labellum
Two sun orchids on this mossy rock have pushed out buds since last week
New bearded orchid budding on the same side of the track
Budding chiloglottis orchid - leaf looks a bit dried out
ID challenge - calli go down the labellum but only in a narrow band
A little side on
And another - similar?
A play of light
This is why I ask the questions - the calli go all the way - chiloglottis formicifera
Like this one
A flash of white
A perspective photo - 2 orchids in frame
Closer in - lots of sand
Pea flower
Big cluster of chiloglottis orchids flowering on a rock high above the track - first tine seeing these flowering
Struggled to get a photo - calli only half way
Sun orchids in the moss - a few weeks
Hypericum on the moss
Got a shot at upside down flower from below
More neatly formed calli on this labellum - feels like 3 types
A cluster on a rock going to the creek
At last - budding - been watching this for weeks
Last of the maroonhoods
