User's notes

A follow-up to sighting 4206801. One of the tiny parasitic wasps which continue to work on a praying mantis egg casing. It's noticeable that the wasps on this egg casing are a different colour (i.e. green) to those sighted on a mantis egg casing in the tall grass of the ANBG's Red Centre (sightings 4207758 and 4205940) which are more brown in colour.
