I noticed one of the skipper family of butterflies land on a flower in the garden and it did look a little different to other skippers that I have seen on the property. It stayed quite still on the flower and allowed me to get a few photos with the phone camera.
When I had a chance to identify it I was pleased to see that it was one I hadn't photographed previously however as many species in this family are very similar I may have seen one before. They are found in NSW and Victoria and the lavae feed on Lomandra mat rush species of which we have quite a lot on the property.
