Hi All,

i have not see any reference to the very bright yellow spot that the males have near their vents. This isn't indicated in any of my books but I see it in a few of the pictures posted here.

Hi RainHard,

Interesting point, but I found it now illustrated in Roberts (A5 Fieldguide) as well as in the text. Nothing as you say in Sasol...

Here is a sequnce of pics taken yesterday at Sable Dam.

Just for your info, it carries an age restriction of PG18!


While floating along, minding my own business, out the corner of my eye I spot this babe...
Image

...after a few seconds serious thought, I made a move on her...
Image

...once I had her, I took her for a short trip...
Image

...not much later I tried a real move on her...
Image

...with my charm it didn't take too long and we were at it...
Image

...she didn't hang around very long, but I wash real chuffed!!!
