We’ve had a few large and fantastic moths visit us recently. Apologies for the quality of the photo, but am wondering if it’s a Bardee Grub moth?

Hi Lisa, the species Glenn has suggested for your big moth is indeed referred to as the Bardee Grub moth. And friends near us in Wonboyn found one too ... looks like the same species.
