Very similar plant to sighting 3872583. A lot of Thelymitra at this location but only the one plant with open flowers at this stage. Based on last year's sightings nearby I would guess T. alpina (as in sighting 3387168). Apologies for the water on the flower - started raining quite heavily while I was photographing it! Cheers Glen
