Perimeter Trail - Ku-ring Gai Chase NP - a few bug photos : January 13 2025

avatar

Day is forecast to steam up. Got moving and changed the sequence of things. Normally I walk and then shop. Just knew it was going to be really sweaty walking. Took ice bricks and a cool box. Shopped first and loaded up the cool bin

Walked the Terrey Hills side of Ku-ring Gai Chase NP hoping to find midge orchids on the grassy edges of the trail. Mimosa flowers out.

The flying insect caught my eye on this one. It was a snap and hope photo. Becomes candidate for photo of the year

Cicadas were busy. Always a chance for a husk photo

A few NSW coral heath flowers going. A bit windy for first plant which was white. This one is a bit pink. Epacris pulcella

Pea flowers still going

Purple fan flower

Peach-flowered tea tree - leptospermum squarrosum

First orchid of the day was the orchid of the day - cryptostylis subulata - last flower for this plant this season

Matching leaves - two plants worth

Hibbertia - a few flowering

Scribbly gum grandeur

Pale flax lily - two shots to test photo lengths

I cannot decide which works better - thinking the second

Tear drop flower (my name). Turning into a good day to get difficult subjects right

Pink grevillea on the way back.

5km marker - my access to the track is around the 2km marker. Turned back about here. Next time I will access the trail from the other side to walk a different grassy section

White grevillea - look closer to see the insect

Snake orchid up high. Zoom in to see the seeds - cymbidium suave - not seen this spot to date

Cluster or cryotostylis orchid leaves. Did see some seeded but no flowers.

Turned into a huge walk over 10k steps. Sure was sweaty.

Dinner: Italian meat balls with pasta. Looks different as finishing was done baked in bbq with hood down.

Late night discussion with my wife's son who is staying until he finds a place. He managed to get under my skin - not for the first time. Has cost me two days work thus far.

The midge orchid looks very beautiful, the other flowers are also very beautiful. Great photography. 15k Steps count today, much more. It was a productive day.
