Do you have a headshot of this (or one like it) Katarina?

No, sorry Glenn. I could not get to its head. My records from Tidbinbilla are not as good as the ones from home because a lot of moths were out of reach (too high), I had to move on to another moth or something landed on the moth and made it leave. It was wonderful but I wish the records were better.
