It's hard to say if there was 1000 or 1000+ orchids. Only a few were in flower.

Great stuff Matt in one weekend you have added by 25% the total number of ever recorded locations of Diamond Ant Orchid in the ACT

Good to know. Without knowing where the location of the other sites, I can assure you that there are many thousands carpeting the southern slopes of the mountain.

This species would benefit by having the ability to mark out an area on the map as opposed to a mere point.
