User's notes
Sorry to put in another Bogong moth sighting, but there were so many this night, hard to say exactly but at least 20, that I thought it was worth reporting. Interesting that Bogong moths seem to go exclusively for the calistemon, while the Helicoverpas are only on the lavender, and some Southern Old lady moths (didn't get a photo) were on the lemon tree flowers.
