Some photos of some Diuris sulphurea here when they were flowering a few months ago in the wild. Elevation about 300 metres in open grassy forest.

How cool. A strange looking one. This should be moved to the wild orchid section.

Very interesting albeit odd-looking orchid! In that first photo, the upper flower looks like a cartoon mouse's head.
