A morning of disturbing dreams - disturbed maybe. Not a cast of characters I want to entertain awake let alone asleep. Makes for a tough start to the day.
Had promised my son cooking up some meals for him to make his move easier. Took a while to get organised. As it happens time was not a factor as he had meetings until the afternoon. I changed the sequencing for the day - irrigation shopping first - then a walk - then my son
Walked Lane Cove NP hoping to find rock orchids. Heaps of lizards - first one got me by surprise. Had forgotten this park has loads
Quite happy to let me walk close by
All the same species - some moulting
Banksia serratum flowering - note the serrated edges on the leaves
This lizard moved a bit bit close enough for photo - can see the red underside
Never know what the orchid of the day will be - budding bonnet orchid. I photograph them all
As I was looking for rock orchids, I was looking up at the ledges. Saw this hyacinth orchid up high
Close up of dipodium variegetum
Track drops down to Lane Cove River a few times - reflections and a fallen tree
Found a budding hyacinth orchid closer to the track on the way back
View across the river from on high with one Macquarie Park office block just showing
Did find a bonnet orchid open - lots of leaves but only one flower
Back to the river - cannot decide which is best photo - landscape or portrait
Good walk - cicadas, lizards, a few orchids.
Headed to my son’s place - Scarlett was awake - even got a smile but not for my photos
Walked the dog. He liked getting out - moving house makes for dog getting down the priorities
Did a whack of garden tidy up when I got home.
Dinner: Fish and chips
Trade action: Fixed CSGN.SW puts
