Wild Tulips?

Or daisies perhaps?


World Exclusive - Newly Discovered Orchids

Orchids. Unidentified. I will name them Baggy Pants Orchids.


Grevillea Incognita

Note the blue clumps of lechenaultia in the background.


Bungendore Park

Last week's expedition past Armadale to Bungendore Park yielded some decent orchid shots.

Muddy Moon

An early shot, with some colour still left in the evening sky.


Bloody Moon

Some clouds threatened to obscure the spectacle, but never got closer than this.


Blood Moon

With my zoom lens and tripod, I staked out a site on the hill above Lake Monger to capture a sequence of shots showing the blood moon. This is after the maximum of the eclipse, as the moon started to emerge out of earth's shadow.

Pimeleas?

Both pink and white varieties intermingled.




Bob Tail Guard

He was closely guarding the homeward path.


Mighty Banksia

On the whole tree, this was the only flower still lit by the sun.


Double Bees


Friendly Biting

Two cockatoos up a gum tree.


Crazy Orchid


Butterfly Time


Peregrine on a Tree

Some bird of prey.


Pixie Mop

At first I thought this was an isopogon. But I've now identified it as a Pixie Mop (Petrophile linearis)


Bold Park Expedition

Lost in Bold Park this afternoon, here was a patch of seedy grasses.

Taken with my iPhone 7. Edited with Camera+.


Soggy Crossman

Another rural landscape from the Crossman area, from Monday's soggy road trip.


Dino Rampage

Visiting a Woodland residence today, a devastating dinosaur was on the rampage, making quite a mess of the kitchen. Luckily a fearless doggy was there to scare it off.
