Yeah spotted this guy a few months ago during a prescribed burn. I just joined canberra nature map and have been adding sightings from the last 6 months.

I'm not sure what to make of the red flush. It is not there in the first image and might be light reflection from the red rock colour behind. They are difficult to tell apart and I would have liked to see the inside mouth colour?

Agree with your comment. Also its location seems too far from other hobbies.

Hi wombey, red flush is most likely from a smokey sunset as it was taken during a prescribed burn.

Hi Geoff, agree there was some doubt about the location and being a Hobbie.
