Thanks Clarehd. This one taught me to look at the tiny ones as well as being fixated on the big ones. I thought the head was beautiful.

Or maybe Oedaleus australis... will just have to wait to see if Roger knows.

Im guessing gastrimargus musicus based on the slight dome shape, stripes along the eyes down the back and banded legs. Completely unsure- not domed anywhere near as much as nymphs seen in other pics but maybe a younger instar...

Thanks very much, Span102. I spotted this grasshopper while working on a gardening project. Came back with my camera & couldn't find it! It took a few minutes before I finally spotted it again.
