It's good to see this species on CNM. It's been observed in Melba before, and was recorded regularly on Black Mountain in the 1940s to 1960s but little if at all seen from then until recent years.

I'll try but I will probably never see it again.

There's always hope, I think it's the same one you and Bron found at the service station a few years ago.
