Definitely interesting carousel.
I'm not fond of mosquitoes either and particularly because of JEV (Japanese encephalitus virus) which is spread by mosquitoes first biting infected pigs. There are a couple of piggeries nearby where we were looking at the orchids.
Australia is home to the world’s most diverse terrestrial orchids and about 80 per cent of these are not found anywhere else in the world.
Yet, many of Australia’s 1,300 native orchid species – which make up 10 per cent of the country’s flora – are threatened by agricultural and urban development.
The Diuris family are generally called donkey or rabbit because of those ears, Lorell. This species is known of as Leopard because of the spots on the back of the flower and on the lip.

Happiness simply is.
