The cool wet spring seems to have had a profound effect on insect populations in this area, with many of the regulars absent or in very small numbers. Common Brown butterflies though have appeared in profusion, as have Wandering Ringtail damselflies.
Males.
Female.
While photographing damselflies a very cooperative Tau Emerald landed close by.
The odd Admiral butterfly has been sighted, this worn individual was nectaring on River Bottlebrush, Callistemon sieberi.
Small spider hunting wasps subfamily Pepsinae have been roaming the tree trunks
in search of hard to come by prey.
On an otherwise bare Yellow Gum trunk a true weevil, Aades cultratus saved the day.
