After been told that these were devils to see, we managed to see three of them all at the same time, as a male (this one) got a bit miffed when a couple trespassed on his territory. Got some terrific views, even in flight (no, missed the shots of that!) and it didn't mind us being stood very close by with cameras.

Have to thank Steve Duffield for locating them though.
