Yellow Jewels are very localised and only known from a few sites in the ACT. This is a new location record.

Wow, excellent record! What time of day did you observe this butterfly? Have you seen them here before?

The photos were taken at 2:20 pm. It was 37 degrees Centigrade at the time and this butterfly was perched on a river bottlebrush in the shade. Haven't seen the species before - another newbie for me!
