Great catch, it's really camouflaged to perfection, I really like these guys, once I managed to catch one myself.

They can be so difficult to find with their amazing camouflage colours and you did well to spot this one - and get such a beautifully detailed shot! Well done.

Definitely well camouflaged. I like the low angle.
