Given that you've confirmed my other sighting at this site (Craspedia variabilis (Common Billy Buttons)) as C. variabilis I presume it would be reasonable to assume that this sighting is also most likely to have been C. variabilis?

Yes I think its a reasonable assumption.

Tapirlord: Are you willing to then confirm it as C. variabilis?

Probably not in good conscious as there aren't sufficent botantical features for an ID. We would be reliant on the assumption.

JK - thanks. I'm up for entering a photo comp, especially if it promotes/publicises Australian native flora & fauna. So if you hear of anything appropriate let me know?
TLord - fair enough, sorry to waste your time.

This sighting really showcases the big wet of 2022 in my mind.
