I shall be pleased to see the adult for confirmation. I think it would be good if you could include all the photos of the various stages of this specimen in one sighting.

Viewing this page on a phone, it is hard to check a reference to another webpage URL that is in a comment. It would be easier if you put the photos of the various stages of growth of a specimen in one sighting.

@donhe I don't have the photos of the other sightings at the moment, but when I do I will include. For now try looking at the timeline link on your laptop, I suggest.
