Great spotting Vinny,congrats on the well deserved SOTD and thanks for sharing
Congrats! Amazing! I think your second photo is my favourite because it shows more of the pattern with a better angle but they are both great.

Thanks for comments everyone, apparently it is only the females that are colourful like this and the males are a rather bland brown colour!
