Bruce Lee in disguise!

Bruce Lee in disguise! (Fulicia atra)

Well technically a duff shot but I have never seen this type of aggressive behaviour before from Coots, this fella came flying through the air with a kick to the midriff ala Bruce Lee, there was a huge brawl, and I thought at one point that it would prove fatal. Fascinating to watch this type of behaviour, I presume they were fighting over the ladies?
