Back to Seven Mile Beach NP on the bike : October 16 2024

Heading south for a few days makes for a busy morning getting stuff organised. Food - my job. Clothes. Dirty laundry - easier to wash down there as we have better drying space. My computer. My wife was doing high pressure washing in the apartment open areas - made for a later start. Travel time was fab and sun came out. Gave me time for lunch and then a ride to Seven Mile Beach NP

First orchid of the day - pink form of caladenia catenata - only one - tried hard to get a good photo. They are so hard to get focus right

Zoomed in photo is a little better

The walk mission was about progress check on hyacinth orchids - a few new spots. Looks like an asparagus spear and has no leaves

Close up of the bud - hard to see any spots but am going to guess it is blotched hyacinth orchid

One against the backing of the fallen branch - highlighted in red

Tiny flower about half the size of a US penny - only one open

Close up fo the bracts forming at the bottom of the hyacinth orchid

Close up of two buds. Mission accomplished one orchid found and at least 10 new hyacinth orchids budding

Walk in the peace of the big trees and the palms is just fab. It is why I want live down here full time

Loved the framing of the photo - framing trees in front, palms in the opening and big trees behind and blue sky above

Good to be on the bike for Kids Cancer after a cold and damp day the day before.

Dinner: BBQ steak and sausages

Trade action: Nuclear market took off with the Amazon SMR deals. They did not announce details but it lit up the whole market. Bought NNE, OKLO, EU. Added a few options trades
