thank you for that link Mr Goldfish. Seems like they choose a flower to suit their colour - or v/v!?

thanks Mr Goldfish, that looks like the one! Guess they come in different colours. Last one I saw was pink!
Possibly Pseudocreobotra wahlbergii.
thanks VFT for the link...
thanks Gilma... Very hard to get a photograph to do it justice. It kept ducking behind the leaf away from the camera!

thanks Jae, but it seems the congratulations is a bit premature!
A beauty, Pam.
Thanks Ashley. How strange. I could have sworn it was 500! just goes to show, either I saw what I wanted to, or I just lost 50 spottings!!
Congratulations, and a real nice one too.
Your page indicates this is spotting 3450.
