I love this species, Ingrid! The adult males have two different forms. I have spottings of one like this and an immature male of the other color form: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/11296687 http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/11419574 They are very interesting, especially this form. I'm sorry you weren't able to get a picture of his "hairdo".
