Sorry Birdy, this is the only pic I took of this individual. I really went to look at Lake George, which is almost up to the road there now, and these couple of trees (Acacia) right next to the car park were just teeming with bugs, insects, and spiders. I was captivated by them for more than half an hour, and saw at least 15 different species, but if you grabbed a twig to try to move it to a better posi to photograph something, you inevitably disturbed something else, and a lot of the beetles just drop if you disturb them, and that might have been what happened here.
