User's notes

these two did alot of mirroring; raising legs face to face, side by side, and then legs up and down together before going deeper into the grass to mate. ?Caledia captiva https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/3394383

definately not sure. but one did mount the other but there were so many together I'm not exactly sure who is in this shot! I love how their innards look like mechanical bits.
