User's notes

A large amount of the bird orchid leaves were visible on the lower slopes of the Scabby Range in various areas. We saw around 8 in flower. GPS approx only. Stoked to randomly stumble upon these and see bird orchids for the first time during an 8-hour hike - good excuse for a rest! Interesting variety of colours. The darker one was seen under a log. Would love help with the specific IDs please.
