Hyacinth Orchids on Christmas Eve : December 24 2022
Day started out a little differently - cycled with my wife down to pub for a coffee. Coffee was good and local. Breakfast did not come out of the kitchen - teething problems. Went down to boat ramp to show her
Always pelicans down there
Went for a ride into Seven Mile Beach NP to look for orchids - first orchid was on the roadside on the way
Blotched hyacinth orchid - dipodium punctatum. First time seeing one on west side of the road
Surprised to find a bicycle in the bush - old style and broken front wheel further in
Rode to centre track and walked back toward where I walked the day before
Variegated hyacinth orchid - dipodium variegatum
The photographer eye caught this juxtaposition of two plants - one growing through the other
The track passes through this cluster of palm like trees - quite striking
Trigger plant with just one flower open
More hyacinth orchids on the way back
Deeper in the bush was a pinker orchid
This is where ID gets hard - dipodium roseum has stripes on the labellum and white or pink tufts - maybe this is enough
Different angle suggests it is rose hyacinth orchid
Stepped back makes a good display
Decided to walk all the way down to the beach and to look on the road track edges. Love this fern emerging
Eucalyptus cry like this when they are stressed or over watered
Found one budding orchid on the way
Looking north up Seven Mile Beach to Gerroa
Dipodium variegatum on the way back
4 in a row
Was good to get out for 2nd ride of the day.
Was Christmas Eve - start it off the way we did in Bangkok 3 years ago - mojitos. A good start.
Cooked dinner too - pasta with chicken
Happy Christmas
