Another great record. Was this the same date as the other record? Thanks, Will O.

The recorded date is as given, 14 Jan 2020. At the moment they seem to be quite common along the river north from Tharwa for about 1 km.
I've been hearing them when I have gone for a walk there since December, usually around sunset.

Many thanks Michael. Good records of a species fairly poorly known for the ACT. We believe that this species has been slowly colonising further south and east over the past thirty years. Will O.
