Return to Manea Park
Last time we went to Manea Park, it was in October.
This time we would try Manea Park in September, hoping to get a glimpse of different orchids, and most of all the prize of Western Australian orchids, the Queen of Sheba. Someone in the orchid group had spotted one.
With hope in my heart, we headed south. I think it was a longer trip than John remembered. We didn’t get to the area with a whole lot of time. Being a Sunday, naturally our morning was taken up with going to church.
We didn’t get to find the Queen of Sheba, which must be well hidden, but we did find some orchids.

Sometimes orchid hunting is not about the orchids…or else I have a short attention span. Loved seeing this wattle bird on a banksia.
We always see something new and exciting in our outings. Even though we missed the Queen of Sheba, I was very tickled to have seen the leaping spider orchid.
