@JonLewis Thanks Jon. Very hard to check IDs at the moment as many species are missing from the Field guide pages. Hope they fix this soon as hard to ID my own sightings let alone other sightings.

Yes, the taxonomy is pretty good for Canberra region, but pretty primitive elsewhere. Will hopefully improve soon. Cheers, Jon
