Images taken from a video I took which will not upload - this has GPS meta data and I am happy to pass it along to the people doing work on the Heath Monitor. I think this is a new record for the Bullen Range area.

Hi @Dwise, Naturmapr does not do videos. The still photos are good. You are right this is the first record of a RG in that area. If you encounter another one, its ideal to get images of the left face and right face which enable individual ID and hence over time some idea whether there is a resident population.
