But where are all the Christmas Beetles?

This has been a strange summer so far around my garden and that of my near neighbours.
No Christmas Beetles, no blossom-feeding bats, few moths and only a handful of butterflies. Even the native bees don't seem to be out and about. And nary a possum clumping over the roof.
The recent rains seem to have encouraged a few more butterflies and moths (and the ubiquitous mosquitoes), but that's about it.
How's the urban wildlife around your town or village?
