These little guys are awesome. They sit there and every now and then the huge red thing comes out of their throats. This little guy was sitting on the bench next to me and giving me the throat signal. I presume it is some form of mating display but I have no idea. Any info anyone has on this would be great.
Anyway it was difficult to get them with the red thing protruding because it comes out and and goes back in very quickly. While it isn't the best angle (slightly facing away from me) and the DOF isn't perfect I thought I would share.
