Bremer Bay

The morning started bright and sunny, The day was looking very promising for a wild orchid tour by a botanist Dr Paul Armstrong that we met the night before.
There were only 3 couples on the tour and Paul drives us around Tozer's private property to show us wild orchids and explain the flora that we were immersed in.
We saw a total of 21 different species of wild orchids. Many that we have only found in books, some tinier than the little finger in height and some hidden in thick foliage of other plants. How Paul spots them to point them out to us is truly mind blowing.
He also taught us how to use our mobiles to take better pictures of the orchids.
Paul was very informative and knowledgeable.
The pictures of the orchids will have the names as captions.
After the tour, Paul have us a private tour while he mapped out his route for tomorrow's tour.Okumaya devam et

It rained all night and did not stop when we with up. So we donned our rain jacket and rain pants from the morning and stayed in then all day. There were intermittent showers throughout the day but that did not deter us from walking.
After breakfast we did the nature's walk Loop from the Quaalup Homestead through Fitzgerald National Park, and at the halfway point, turned onto the Ridge Gorge walk then returned to nature's walk to finish the loop.
The walk was so interesting with bountiful wildflowers, splendid views, a viewing tower to climb and a discovery of the bird orchid.
We returned to the campsite to have lunch.
After lunch we explored inside the old homestead built in 1820s. We then headed out the gate and up to the first crest with views over Doubtful Valley to get mobile reception and call Kai.
It's a very quiet campsite with only one other couple in a caravan.Okumaya devam et
