User's notes

Spotted it successfully crossing Constitution Ave. It proceeded to search along the Russel Offices for 5-10min before eventually crossing the road again. It was potentially stuck against the retaining wall and I was a bit concerned for its welfare so I carefully picked it up and carried it 100m back into Mt Pleasant.

Thanks Roy, yes a bad wall to be stuck by - I wonder how it got there?
