No less than three Goannas in the dead Angophora this morning, the most I have seen. The first pic shows all three (Gordon at bottom, then Newby, then an individual likely to be Burley at top), second shows Gordon and Newby from another angle, third shows top Goanna, fourth shows Newby's left face, fifth and sixth show Gordon's face.

Insect attached to Painted Reed Frog
May have been parasitism or eating some thing off the skin of the frog. Guess parasitism, guessing at beetle lavae.

~13mm long 5th instar
Notice the raised scent glands the nymphs have.
Also, this 5th instar it's quite a bit larger than the 4th (8mm vs 13mm) plus the hind wings buds are clearly visible now in profile view.

This had actually made a web to catch prey and was suspended between vegetation when I found it.
