User's notes

I strongly suspect that other nearby individuals were recently grazed. Rabbits present. I am unsure whether or not other herbivores are present.

There are always herbivores or insects present. Orchids are as much a food source as any other plant.

What a wonderful resource the Nature Map is. By checking it out I discover that it was last recorded for the Dryandra Street Woodland in 2015 by iBaird.

Yeah. It has a timeline feature that allows you to see flora and fauna of the same species recorded in the vicinity. It's pretty cool watching the lifecycle of a plant that is reported weekly.
