Field Notes - I know robberflies usually need a microscope, but this huge one is quite unusual, and the macro lens is almost microscopic. have I got all the bits of anatomy I should focus on, or do i need genitalia or some unusual angle?

Meet Ben. His ear tag number is 3238 and he was released around Avalon Rd in May 2020. He's been parading up and down the area between this property and the adjoining one for the last few weeks, calling out for a female. Any female! But with no luck so far. Today, he was at eye level, in a eucalyptus growing on the outer side of the dam wall. So from the bottom of the tree, he was a fair way up. But from the top of the dam wall, he was level with me. I didn't see him at first because I was trying to take a photo of a teddy bear bee. It was only after the bee disappeared, that I turned around and saw Ben looking at me! It's quite an honour to be eye to eye with a wild koala.
