Seen on flower but no photo
Pretty sure it was a flower wasp but it hid behind the burgan flowers before flying off
Seen but not on flowers:
Paropsis pictipennis, Tea-tree button beetle
Various moths other than the lydia lichen moth but too small to identify and generally not seen on flowers
Flowers: Hibbertia maybe coming into a second flowering as there was a small amount, cassinia everywhere on site possibly moving to seed, burgan almost finished, small amounts of centaury, ivy goodenia, smooth hawksbeard and yellow rush lily (I think). Only two St John's wort plants although there is a lot of st john's wort generally on bluetts block.
