User's notes
there were 2 large clusters of them within a 7m zone ...then dotted along the path for the next few minutes walk heading towards Bruce Ridge from Belconnen. very close to edge of path, scattering out as they went further from it. some were growing out of the gravel(?) on the edge of the path. some were very pink, some white, some mixed.
