Koondoola Orchids
Our house is close to a lovely piece of bushland, and it was an extra treat for him to come home early and we got to take a walk there together.
This particular day we went in to find some orchids.
We were first met with some lovely spider orchids.
Love their side view and proud stance.
Full frontal 🙂
Some cute donkey orchids, a little different from the ones we saw at Lightning Swamp which had pointy ears, and these are more rounded.
More spider orchids, with red this time.
Of course there is always more in the bush than orchids, like these kangaroo paws.
There are usually so many of them in Koondoola, and I never get tired of seeing them.
A classic kangaroo paw pose.
A welcoming set of Kangaroo Paw arches.
These donkey orchids were asking for a portrait.
So far my experiences with looking for orchids, you see them one or two, perhaps three at a time, and often hard to find, so it was happy to see a large group of Donkey orchids.
One more classic pose with a back-lit kangaroo paw as we left…
