Headed for La Norcia and saw some very blue flowers along the road to the south of there (lechenaultia?) then headed north through Wubin, Morawa before heading west to Dongara. Had a full day at Coalseam National Park and then south via Lesueur National Park and Pinnacles.
The stretches between Wubin and Morawa were great for roadside flowers and shrubs. The Brand Highway either side of Eneabba had some great photo ops in the native bushland. Lesueur was a disappointment. Having read about its bio-diversity and been assured that, despite a bushfire thru there last summer, the plants would be in full bloom, alas they weren't. Coalseam was excellent for that "carpet of flowers" experience.
I'll add further captions later to identify flowers.
