One found by Alastair Smith this morning. First seen on pond 2b (COG pond 6), later relocated at pond 4 (COG Pond 1), I have attached part of Geoffrey Dabb’s recent message re pond numbering to save confusion. This may be the second ACT record, Wilson lists a sighting in 1991.

 

 

 

Now that the ponds APPEAR to be open again, I might mention the numbering issue.  Back in the days of the telephone chatline a diagram was helpfully placed in the box at the sign-in point.  It is still there today, photographed by me this afternoon.  Although the diagram has been attributed to me, it was in fact the work of Bob Rusk.

Some time later, use of the internet enabled access to a separate code used by ACTEWAGL.  I use ‘enabled’  loosely because I am unable to find it at the moment, but some people can, and have used it in reports.  I did find a message by Chris Davey last September, which gives the ACTEWAGL code, if you want to know it –

For myself, I continue to use that entry gate system.
