Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone could identify the following...
Found @ Pigsty Ponds

Found on the summit of Mt La Perouse

Found at the base of Pindars Peak -
dracophylla?

Cheers, Nick

The top one I think is 'Eyebright' or Euphrasia gibbsiae
I'm not sure but I think the second one is the Yellow Alpine Groundsel or Senecio pectinatus
The last one looks like a Pandani but it might be the Mountain Heath or Dracophyllum milliganii - I get these mixed up too in this environment.
Nice pics!

I'd agree on the first and last Dan, but I suspect the second one is a Ranunculus (buttercup). I'm not sure of the species, maybe gunnianus, or possibly nanus. The glossy petals are the give away,
cheers
