Probably everyone that goes to the NABG gets a photo of these but they are pretty and unusual to me.

Thanks for the comment ibaird. They are just up from the cafe, along the bitumen road, on the edge of the rain forest gully. I should be able to tell you the plant but i can't. Peter

I've been to ANBG quite a few times and haven't even seen one yet - and it goes without saying I would love to see one!

Wow Ryu, maybe I have been lucky. I saw them first and didn't have a camera but when I went back I couldn't believe my luck! Peter
