I've been trying to get a photo of one of these males for a couple of months, they are so watchful and take off the moment I stop the bike. finally success!
@bruni the males of this species are sometimes bright plumage like this fella, and some are dull and hard to tell from the females. unlike the superbs who moult in the winter and go dull, then back to breeding colours in spring, these maintain colour all year (however saying that, it is winter and I have superb that are still very blue too, so maybe everything is just insane)
thanks for asking!
