1st sighting in SA on Atlas & iNat, but are known in the State in previous studies.
We've photographed 7 specimens here, all in Oct & Nov.

There were at least 6 if not more of these Nomia Bees foraging in the Dianella flowers. I think the warm humid weather has brought them out.

Kessell Road ponds in a hired red bird hide, no camouflage required when territory is the issue. They took time out for a bath and came back, wet feathers in some pics. There’s a timber bird hide for sighting the water birds i.e. Aust Coot, Black Swan, Pacific Duck.

~14mm forewing length.

Male? I think. Not sure how to tell, but ventrally the body looks the same as Lindsay's male ventral.
