This might prove to be a bigger challenge than I originally anticipated as many Spring flowers have been damaged by the recent rains. However, as I love to use my spare time to head bush, I feel safely confident I'll manage 10 before the 30th, a hair's breadth before Summer kicks in.

Tonight's Choice is a beautiful specimen of Spider Orchid spotted today, deep within a Nature Conservation Reserve in the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges
