Definitely a Grass, though I'll leave this one for someone else with more experience

Hi @JimL , this sighting and your other recent one (Gerridae (family) (Water strider)) appear to be water striders! They are water bugs — a type of insect, rather than a species of spider — so I am putting the Gerridae (family) suggestion forward for the insect moderator team to identify further :). Many water spiders are much larger than these guys, as well as having 8 legs!!
The Canberra and Southern Tableland regions have many reference records you could look through if you're interested:
Pisauridae sp. (family)

Thanks for the sightings!

Gerridae (family)

Okay thanks, lets leave unconfirmed for now then. It seems that is a good judgement, Vicflora says leaves less than 3mm wide, capsules less than 5mm wide which seems to be the case here. If you're happy too we can probably start changing some of these names at some point, as I do agree with that statement.

Callistemon subulatus

Luke, I might've said the leaves look a tad to thin for C.citrinus. I reckon C.subulatus (noting they are all in melaleuca now)
