After 10 years photographing arthropods I've decided to share the results on CNM. 100,000 photos are too many, so I'm starting by choosing one place, from which I'll add sightings. It's a small dam in the grounds of Calvary hospital, seldom noticed, on the corner of 2 major Belconnen roads. So ordinary, yet so diverse... Dunlop Ponds is next. I've become very interested in moths, and my backyard is proving fascinating.
