I'm sure you were not the only one taken in by it Will Smile

Lovely Shot and excellent timing, those combats only seem to last milliseconds.

Thanks Gemma - I'll put some up on Flickr.  Yes, they sort out their combats very quickly in my experience - only once seen a fight that lasted twenty minutes, most of them over in 1 - 5 mins I think.  Not in the interests of either party to prolong things, I suppose.

OK, Gemma - I've been working on this 'two-tailed lizard' thing - I found this one today (but it seems to have a couple of heads, tooLOL!)

...there was that photo somewhere in the press/BBC of two-headed and eight limbed frog which turned out to be, guess what ?  a pair in amplexus...

I think I remember a mating ball too Will getting in the press a few years back. It was clear as day that it was a bunch of different animals with different markings....
