The Fromouths have returned to our property at Carwoola.  This seems to have coincided with an abundance of large (5cm long) moths of which a sample is shown in the attachment.  Can anyone put a name to this species? 

It definitely adds excitement to life in my study as the ghostly shape of a Frogmounth swoops out of the darkness, grabs its prey off the window and goes silently on its way!
