    Well M, just as I was getting back into work mode, looking at this has put me right back in the bush again!! :-) Stunning portrait, well done!!

  • AARDVARK replied

    Thanks again Macky, this is another from Lower Sabie. At Asfaal I saw a red one attacking his image in a car door mirror, after a while he gave up and sat in a tree but retuned to the mirror a couple of minutes later for more of the same. The’re great characters!
