I saw one of these at Kruger but it was during the day I didnt get nearly as good a sighting! very jealous! Lovely picture!
Thanks everyone - it does look to be fashioning some very pretty eyeshadow ;-)
Awesome spotting.
The eyelids are fascinating!
That first photo shows off the pink eyelids really well!
Wonderful spotting!
