Thanks Craig, sorry missed that with my last comment. I didn't know Odontoglossum was defunct, orchid names are changing so much!
Thanks. I see it now, I had to look really close, nice observation. Looks like it's yawning.
Beautiful Dan. Looks like there's a face with wide mouth at the center of the flower.
Cracking! Worth checking Odontoglossum for this and the other spot with similar flower morphology, although they may well now be classed as Oncidium (last time I heard, Odontoglossum was defunct but I don't now how many sources will follow that)
Thanks Mona. Yeah, it's very high up, pretty wet and chilly for me but the orchids love it!
wow, that's high !!! Nice photos Dan..
