Trevor were the numbers closer to 100 or 16?

Also, we would like to know if it was in the cemetery proper, or in one of the adjacent woodlands where we are doing a lot of work. I assume it is in the more 'open' cemetery vegetation however.

I pronably saw 20 or 30, but I think there might have been closer to 100, they were very common in the patch of kangaroo grass in the front part of the cemetery.
