Gasp!! First time seeing this butterfly. Thank you to the red-bellied black snake that put me off walking my original intended route. Instead, I went back down to this treasure trove, allowing me to find this treasure!

Very nice, I missed this sighting from almost a month ago. This is now the second location for the Yellow-spotted Jezebel, along with Braidwood. I saw one in my garden today.
