You're welcome – do you have more sightings to upload ?
Please feel free to private message me and introduce yourself.

Through the late 1980s–1990s–2000 I have occasionally worked doing botanical surveys with colleagues' nature conservationists working there in that region, botanist Gidja Walker, indigenous nursery-man extraordinaire Mark Adams, conservationist activist late Stephanie Rennick and so on .
Even doing some Arthurs' Seat volunteer boneseed removal working bees days out in the 1990s.

From 1970–2000 I grew up – lived – started my adult life and career work, in the Sandringham region (SE Mellb.) and family holidays included then regular stays in my maternal 2nd late Uncle's and late Aunty's house in Blairgowrie, including visiting surrounds such as Portsea and Sorrento .
My maternal 1st late Uncle and late Auntie then lived in Rye with their son my first cousin – he lives near Brisbane now !
