Nice record, thanks Steve! Did you notice if there was any bursaria growing nearby?

Thanks Suzi, yes there is quite a bit of Bursaria spinosa subsp. lasiophylla flowering in the area (I have submitted it as a sighting recently).

Great. If you happen to walk here regularly can you keep an eye on the bursaria as there's a chance this species is breeding on it, and it would be fantastic to have another known breeding colony for Fiery Copper in our area.

I’ll have a good search of the area and see if I can find any more.
