Waking up feeling seriously unmotivated - the monster $38k loss from the trading mistake at the weekend is having me question, why bother? A week of promoting two good products that got maybe 30 clicks had me questioning more.
My investing coach always said - keep doing what is working and stop what is not. That time is coming
Taking a different approach to getting into the bush. Before the move and un our place down south, I would get on the bike. With strike action almost daily, not happy doing the train-bike thing in case I have to ride home on crazy roads. Take the car for short trips. Today to walk an autumn orchids track in the rain forest
NSW coral heath flower
Seeking out two leaves opposed on the ground - chiloglottis orchids - soon
Large colony forming up - going to geliess these are chiloglottis formicifera for 2 months along
Saw a flowering orchid - this skink posed
Common ant orchid - close by - chiloglottis seminuda
Track drops down to cross Zigzag Creek- the lizard posed (on the way back too)
Changing of the guard photo - seeding bonnet orchid
Silver top mushroom - autumn is onnits way and it rained a bit
Lobelia - always a photo challenge as the flower is small and the white grabs the light
A few more chiloglottis seminuda on the way down
Stepped back photo showing the leaves - smooth edges
Part two of the mission - check on greenhoods - budding
One budding - sharp greenhood - an interesting spot - in one metre only are 30 plants - not up and not down
A staircase of mushrooms
Path opens out onto a bigger trail - Great North Walk goes right. Each time I walk this I get the urge to walk it in stages
Half way between Sydney Cove and Cowan. One leg would be close to 10 hours
Walked a bit of that leg - not done that before - works up into the dry scherophyll forest- good for summer orchids
Flowers change up here - hibbertia
Pine-leafed geebung
Even a few flannel flowers - a bit late
Autumn is mushroom time
Did find a bonnet orchid just closing up
Walk back produced more orchids on the low side of the hill. Will walk it with eyes the other side next time down
And a bonnet orchid fully open - cryptostylis erecta
Now for the chiloglottis orchid expo - different to the others - calli go further down the labellum
Slight change of angle - kind of thinking there is a semi-circle of calli just below midpoint of the labellum
Is it chiloglottis sylvestris?
This looks clearly different - pointed labellum and dark calli go further down to the point
Side on - probably chiloglottis diphylla
Mushroom opening out
Side by side up the hill
Calli are quite different - tighter and not as dark.
Closer to the one before and in the same colony
Spied the rosettes not far from the concrete path - greenhoods - four leaf rosette
ID time - two leaves opposed or rosette with leaves hiding
Chiloglottis seminuda. Definitely waking this track next time with eyes right to start
All the orchids were downhill - normally they are uphill
Greenhood budding - maybe different to the others - maybe nodding greenhood
A few leeches - no photos. One red bellied black snake seen too. No photos
A good walk - at least 4 orchids seen - maybe 5.
Skipped the idea to shop - too sweaty.
Had a strata meeting when I got home. Scrambled a quick dinner on bbq when our guest left.

Silver top mushroom looks good
I like to see it🥰
Your lizard is exactly like the lizard I saw 2 days ago on a palm tree here in Thailand. Are there really exactly the same ones in your latitudes?
