It was a hot and humid day - perfect for Thelymitra
hunting. We found a few blue ones, white ones. These may be new as
well, time and the book will tell. Then as we walked back to the car,
happy and heat affected, Mischa noticed on the edge of the track was this
orchid in full bloom. Nearby was a plant with bud. They were worth
the sweat!
Photographed at Anglesea Heathlands area. |
