I was very lucky to see this one. Some people were about 20 meters ahead and they flushed it towards me and happened to have camera in hand.

Thanks Aaron & Michael, just in the right spot with a camera. Mulligans Flat is a wonderful place and will only get better as long as future goverments are as supportive. Lets keep supporting it and CNM is doing a large part to help maintain interest in the environment in the Canberra region. Well done! Peter
