User's notes

Not sure whether this may be a Wattle Blue. I have other images, but none of the underside of the fore or hindwings unfortunately.

Hi Ian, this looks like a female. Did she lay any eggs on the broad beans?

Suzi. No, not that I remember, I didn't look. But now I know this species is migratory to the ACT, I will look out for that sort of evidence in the future.Cheers.

Thanks Ian. They do breed in the ACT during the spring/summer/autumn but we have no records of winter breeding.
