Very calm, even stayed put while I went to get the good camera! Sitting amongst the flowers of a Bursaria.

Very close to where I photographed one along the Dasyurus track in 2019!

@RogerF oh, how interesting! I haven't been up this way for ages, but I've learned to scan Bursaria for interesting bugs and got lucky with this critter.
