ID is a guess, influenced by how tall and big this Pterostylis is: about 25 cm tall, and up to 5 cm long flower.
Just 4 plants in amongst dense growth at edge of a soak

I believe these are P. falcata and I am pleased to see them as I was concerned as I have not been able to find them in this area since the fire.
