Summer Orchids : Cryptostylis leptochila
 

Here's a Small Tongue-orchid (Cryptostylis leptochila), one of the first in
flower. Its got a little mite or something crawling on one of its tepals.

For those interested it was photographed in Doongalla Forest yesterday.

Also you guys have the neatest names "Doongalla Forest"
There could be a joke here about this forest but I'm not
going there! *g*

Peter, could be a tick, just its legs seemed a little long.

Doongalla means "place of peace", possibly in a local Aboriginal language.
