Observation details
You almost couldn't make it up; I was happily bagging shots of one of the Spotteds when, quite suddenly, I realised that I could see two luminous red legs standing right there behind it!! Amazingly, right out in the open, was a leaden-black and grey Spotless, remarkably large when directly compared with its cousin, and even sharper in handsomeness and overall low-slung shape as it tentatively preened!!! True to form, though, it immediately stole its way back into the long grass, ever to be seen again but also never to be forgotten!!
