 15:00; 18 degrees, overcast and blustery. All of the Orange-tips were males. The Wood Tigers were all seen in the section immediately adjacent to the High Clear Down Reserve. There initial ID was based on size, colour and flight pattern and subsequently confirmed when specimens displaying the same characteristics were seen and photographed when settled on the reserve proper (see photograph).
