First midge orchids in Ku-ring Gai Chase NP : January 28 2025

(Edited)

Steaming up for a hot day. Plan was to get out early - renew drivers licence - buy some office stuff. The licence was done inside 30 minutes even though the office was busy. They stream different categories. Got the office stuff done quickly too - shop was busy with school kids

Decided to walk a North Turramurra track based on almanac sightings and the track has a lot of shade. Pine leafed geebung to start

Peach-flowered tea tree

Heading into mushroom season

Purple fringe lily - one of a few

Banksia serratum flowers forming

A bit further developed

A context photo for an endangered orchid sight - the green environmentally sensitive site sign and the scribbly gum

No sign of that orchid. Pea flower

Red spider grevillea. Walked the big loop under the powerlines in the sun. Found first orchid buds in the shady part of the track

Budding form

Photo work - first one in the sun and one with a background. Close by was a plant finished flowering - fringed midge orchid - corunastylis fimbriata

Found one more budding higher up. Close up photo was out of focus. Good to find them - they are late

Mushroom action - season is moving along

Snapped a temperature check at the end of the walk - 40C is dedicated. Was hotter ehn I got home

Copped a massive thunderstorm late afternoon which dragged temperatures down 15C. Walked up to shops to get some key things - like alcohol free wine for my wife

Dinner: Macaroni cheese - 2nd time in 2 weeks

For the budding form, is that the name of the flower?

Purple fringe lily looks very beautiful to me, I am always amazed by your flower photos and I am inspired by you. Flowers are probably the most beautiful thing in the world.

    Some sleight of hand to get featured image back - one of the editors screwed things up
