Ethiopian orchids
So I went to Ethiopia during their rainy season, and did tons of hiking. Being the student botanist that I am, I basically disregarded the animals and took tons of plant pics. 
Here are orchids That I found. The first three pics are from the wet eastern side Mountain jungles, eastern slope of the mountain that is. Very wet, very cool. So very comfy actually. All three pics are different plants, but probably the same species.
The rest of the pics I took on the dry forest side of the same mountain. Bale mountain. In this forest you would also find tons of wild Coffee, well Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee.
