Good find @Steve_Bok. This is the first Small Grass-yellow sighting on Canberra Nature Map this year. We had a lot of sightings in November 2022, and one on 18 December 2022 but then no more until today.

Thanks Matthew, it was a chance find to be honest, but if something interesting crosses my path I’ll usually try to get a photo.

Just got a sighting from 2 March uploaded, so seems like they are flying through again.
