Hi Kym. Many thanks for this record. We have had very few sightings of this species on Mt Ainslie in the last couple of years compared to the years before. Their face markings enable individuals to be recognised. Therefore it would be nice to get a higher resolution photo from you if you dont mind sending one to don.fletcher@emailme.com.au . cheers

Don as a moderator if you click on the little white cloud in the bottom left of the picture you will be able to download the image at the resolution that it was loaded into Canberra Nature. Thanks for the posting kym if you have photos could you send them to Don.
