This was taken from the car, driver's side, looking out of nearside window... quite "hide" like!
Is this a female, do you think. There's no red to be seen, or is it all on the front?


(I'm in the process of checking IQ on the 150-500. I think I've been a bit optimistic with the hand-holding vs. shutter speed.)

I think it's a male because it looks a bit bright to be a female, wish i could spot one.
