Terrey Hills orchids - Ku-ring Gai Chase NP : December 12 2024

avatar

Got a different day lined up. Chose to skip a Christmas lunch - dull menu and my wife had her work party. Will meet the protagonists later. Drove down to Terrey Hills side of Ku-ring Gai Chase NP. During covid was going this weekly as my preferred shopping centre was down the road

NSW coral heath flower - a few still going

Tiny in yellow - thinking goodenia

Bonnet orchid where the track meets the fire trail. New find here but last year there was a hyacinth orchid hard by

Mimosa flower forming - reminds me of South Africa - heaps of these

Cicada husk

This tiny pink flower is a photo challenge. Each flower is smaller than a US penny

Conesticks flower

Purple fan flower

Two tone flower show - NSW coral heath flower and purple fan flower

Eucalyptus bark shedding season

This cicada was trapped upside down on the track - turned it over - good chance it could fly off

Leaf curling spider - the legs are in there somewhere. They hide when humans arrive

Patersonia iris low down

Budding hyacinth orchid with a few days to opening

Hibbertia fully open

Open hyacinth orchid

Close up - dipodium variegatum

A bit more side on

Heart graffiti on track side

Three headed cornsticks flowers - normally only one

Pea flower

Two cryptosrylis orchid leaves - front and back good green

The marching flower - cryptostylis subulata

Bonnet orchids over the track

Hard up on the edge of the track

Working hard on photos of the blotched hyacinth orchid - a hard subject without photo stacking

Pink spider grevillea

White hakea

Testng out side-on photo of dipodium variegatum

Stopped for a nature break - saw this tongue orchid off track

Light in the right pace to get underside photo of the veins - cryptostylis subulata

Found this orchid on the way back to track. Bottom flower has seeded - hard to say what Is going on above. Tought to decide on ID given timing. Going to guess it is late flowering bearded orchid - calochilus gracimilus. If it is - first sighting here

Caught the train and Metro into city to meet up with friends. Photo from the new Gadigal Station on the way home

Dinner action: Pizza - fab after a few drinks
