Thanks Matt. I've added some extra info to the User's notes about a relevant FOG newsletter article. My pics from my Shingleback Lizard sighting (4654751) in the vicinity possibly shows more of a close up of the Serrated Tussock (mixed with what looks like Shiny Bog-rush
Schoenus nitens). If you consider it worthwhile I could add one or both these pics to this sighting?

Thanks @Tapirlord, I'm seeing lots of this around since it first drew my attention, and it's all flowering or going to seed, so I'm doubly delighted! Thanks too, for all your other moderating on my several recent sightings. a few more to come before I turn to uploading the other life forms I've been recording.

@Tapirlord or possibly Eragrostis australasica? The plant is growing next to water and I think I can see branched culms in the background of image 3.
