Yes, will do, thanks Johan. I went to visit it again yesterday in my garden - and nothing, gone completely - the web ruined? Would a bird eat our little Festive Vlei?

All that remains is to rename the other two spottings as well. Well done!

Yes Johan, now without a doubt I believe it is the Festive Vlei, and what a brilliant name to suit the brilliant colors!
