Hi Jenny Calochilus platychilus is starting to flower in this area and this appears to most likely the species, but the image provided makes it difficult for moderators to conclude it is that species. It would be very valuable if you could persist with the difficulties of the mobile phone unfriendly focus system to provide an infocus image of the flower. I understand the frustration and difficulty these supposed smartphones present when photographing orchids, particularly if the wind is making the flower move.
For the sake of record species integrity I will leave this at the genus identification level.
