Notes from your tour guide: Andrew Brown

Locations in the itinerary are those likely to be visited but may be altered if I become aware of better populations of orchids along the proposed route.

Orchids listed for each site are those that are likely to be found but species/numbers may vary depending on seasonal influences (rainfall). Note: We may also find species that are not listed.

We will do four or five planned stops most days but, if time, may do one or two opportunistic stops. The amount of time spent at each planned stop will vary depending on the number of orchids seen but will usually be between 45 minutes and one hour. Opportunistic stops will generally be around 30 minutes.

The flora in Western Australia is protected so please do not pick flowers. Also, please be careful where you are treading. Some of Western Australian orchids are very small and not always that obvious.

Please do not wander too far away from the group and try and keep others in site at all times.

When it is time to leave each location I will get the bus driver to toot the horn.

7

There will be mosquitoes at some of the stops so I suggest you bring repellent.

Make sure you bring plenty of drinking water.

I will have books on orchids and other flora at the front of the bus. Please feel free to look at them whilst we are travelling. You are also welcome to borrow books for the night. Make sure they are placed back in the box in the morning.

During the trip please feel free to ask me questions about orchids and other flora.

At the end of the trip I will put together a list of orchids seen at each stop and email it to you.
