We were chatting to a ranger 2 weeks earlier
and he said that a rare orchid was flowering for the first time in a while
and we should photograph it. We got nowhere with the stated
directions. Research indicated it was possibly this orchid. So
2 weeks later we went to where we thought we should find it, taking into
account the rangers comments. After about a kilometre walk along a
track we found them, right on the side of the track. The first one
was a bud, but we soon found mature plants.
Photographed at the Little Desert National Park. |
