Thanks Tammy - this orchid is rare in the ACT. We had a report from this area in 2017 so good to see that it is still about post fire.

Thank you Michael, I wish I'd taken a better photo now. There were lots of other flowers (different species we only saw one orchid) around so it was good to see the area is recovering.
