Yes, they're certainly busy little beggars :) and it was only with perseverance that we got a decent shot at all. What was interesting was that there were so many of them. At first I thought there was only a couple darting around in a dry river bed but as I started to 'stalk' them looking for a good shot there was actually a dozen or more, their camouflage is very effective and it's their movement that gives them away.
