Foxes Lair August Highlights
August marks the start of peak wildflower season with many different types and colour of wildflower coming into flower on all walks.
• Orchid numbers increase in August, with greenhood orchids in full flower being joined by Pink Fairy, Pink Fairy/Cowslip hybrids, Donkey, Primrose Spider, Clubbed Spider and tiny sugar orchids.
Some species are only found in 1 or 2 spots, so check numbers on the map below for locations, and keep an eye out for red tape marking special flowers.
• The western part of the Banksia Walk has a wonderful show of dryandras.
• The Valley walk is good for Greenhood and Pink Fairy orchids.
• Look for beautiful pink Frasers Dryandra flowers on red soil on the Claypit Walk near the Claypit, and try the Claypit Challenge
• The Granite Walk winds through green growth, granite boulders and rock ferns. Look for bullets at the rifle range bank
• See dewy spider webs on misty mornings and local roos
