Hi Kim,
If you have a clear photo and accurate location I suggest submitting the
photo to iNaturalist https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/ There is a whole
community of people there including moth experts. A bonus is that if
successfully identified the observation will flow through to databases such
as Atlas of Living Australia.
Cheers,
Euan

Hi Folks
To those many out there who are better natural historians than me, two ID
questions: an impressively large moth, and a rather strking cocoon (or
rather, a set of three). The cocoons were hanging from a westringia bush.
The location is just south of Narooma on the NSW south coast; a bush
property on the slopes of Mt Gulaga. Moth photo-ed yesterday; the cocoons,
today
Thanks
