Hi Heather. It would be great if you could upload the extra photos showing mum pregnant.

You will have to put mum up as a seperate sighting - would be good if we can get a species ID and wing venation may help with this
Cheers Michael

@MichaelMulvaney and @michaelb I’ve just uploaded the mum in a separate sighting, but it hasn’t flowed through to my sightings yet. Includes normal pics of her gravid and 2 macros shortly after laying. Hopefully the macro wing shot is the one you need!! I’ll include the link when it comes through.

@MichaelMulvaney @michaelb - sorry, forgot to link this. Sighting 4485355 is the mother gravid and shortly after laying. Hopefully the sightings combined is enough.
