Mt Gudgenby summit. Hilltopping with Macleay's Swallowtail (also photographed), Australian Admiral, a mostly cream-white Pierid butterfly (photographed later in the day on Scabby Range) and what looked like a day-moth that was mostly black with some white markings. The same suite of species were observed later in the day hilltopping on other peaks in the Scabby Range.

No worries - they were almost impossible to photograph! One more butterfly photo from Scabby Range to come
