    Since this is not in the critique section I don't know how I should approach this!

    I am wondering why there are two images posted that are almost exactly the same.

    They are very common around this area Kevin.
    Mind you I have only seen one in this garden in the ten years we have lived here.
    They certainly are bright and they do stand out ...
