So I'm back to posting images from the mountain. I'm trying to be a little more specific on identification. It was a bit tricky with a lot of them as most of them are past spring flowering and into seeding. There were still quite a few though. Here's the first little selection.
I think this is Dampiera Purpurea
I'm pretty sure this is a Hairpin Banksia Banksia Spinulosa
This flower has caused me quite a lot of bother - I've spent ages looking for it, which is why the following two photos are also of it. I think this plant is only a very juvenile example. I will search for more examples.
The closest that I can find is that it is of the Phebalium family, but of all of the examples in that link I can't find any that are the same leaf.
This one is also a challenge. The closest I can find is that it is of the Pomederris family, with three possibilities - helianthemifolia , phylicifolia , sericea . I will try to take some more photos to narrow it down a bit.
Purple Goodenia Coopernookia Barbata
I'm pretty sure this is introduced - cute though.
This is a beautiful small plant - it's symetery is stunning. I suspect it's introduced but won't be sure until it flowers.
And a big thankyou to PlantNET

These are a little bit late in being posted - they are from a wonder I had on the 31st October.
Hardenbergia (?)
larger yellow pea flower with a multi-headed white flower
not sure if this is native or not..
Stunning yellow orchid
this is the vine from the last post - it has come into full bloom now
the vine over some waratahs
another waratah
and finally I catch a photo of a birdie - a crimson rosella I think
some lovely fungi
a fern gully
these fern trees are actually quite large - about twice as tall as me
I have no idea what this small shrub is - I'll have to wait until it flowers
This was a very cute creature! Very hard to photograph - I had to use a flash. He looks like some kind of moth or beetle?
and this is his house
These look like giant caves, but the whole thing is only about 50cm high. Caves for ants!
and some rock and trunk textures..
