Over the past few days I have noticed that white Lady Finger Orchids are blooming all over the Cove. Two areas where there are lots are along the roadside on The Ridgeway, and in the bushland on the western side of Cove Boulevarde just before The Esplanade.

The attached map shows properties, roads and zoning in both the North Arm Cove village and the surrounding non-urban area west to Goorengi Road.

The map also shows roads which are privately owned and provide access to other properties through easements or rights of way.
