A quick word on droseras, of the three species found in ACT D.articula is the most distinctive and can be ID'd by the absence of hair on the sepals as can be seen in the emerging buds on this sighting. D.hookeri and D.peltata are far more complicated to ID so for future clear image of the sepals and flower, as well as an image of the rosette, is usually enough for an ID. Hope this helps :)
