More sundries

 This covers a range of interesting things seen as we wander around.

The first two images are a large beetle seen under the powerlines opposite Karbeethong Road.  It has been identified on iNaturalist as Stigmodera macularia, a Jewel Beetle.


The next is from our neighbours lawn.  She often has these stinkhorns (Clathrus archeri) growing there.
The next two come from a walk along the Narrows Track which has become less floriferous in recent weeks.  Dianella caerulea is always nice to see.
Judging by the tooth-edged leaves this is Olearia erubescens.
The most interesting bird seen was a Striated Heron.  But I couldn't get a photo.  A Superb Lyrebird scratching just above the path was entertaining.  It was cooperative enough to hang around while i played with manual focus to get through the twigs.
