Thanks Ed. Its likely that the ACT citizen science reporting and study of the Gang Gang will soon go national. Sightings of Gang Gangs eating, where their food item can be identified are particularly sought. We can never get too many of these sightings. For example over the next year if we get 200 photo of Gang Gangs feeding like this one on Cotoneaster glaucohyllus and 20 feeding on Chinese Elm it gives us an indication of relative dietary importance of these two food plants.
