Petrel Point III - Finding the Orchids

We followed the boardwalk further, and eventually found some orchids.  I think the carnivorous plants are the most fascinating, but I think for most visitors it's these orchids that are the highlibht.

These are the Showy Ladyslipper, and they are beautiful!  

You can sometimes find them growing right in the ditch.  Staying on the boardwalk does limit the view of the flowers you can get.

After we got back to the car we drove down the road a bit and saw these bright red Indian Paintbrush.

And as we left we saw this distant Grass Pink, another orchid.

And here's your friendly narrator!
