Thanks for you suggestion. I had it automatically down as Asilus until I saw the picture. And even then I was not sure until somebody else came up with the query from their own observations. Asilus is regularly seen at both sites as this one. But definitely smaller by 20% this one.

It is the only photograph. Instant reactions of point and shoot as it only settled on a chalky path for a second. Lucky to get it in the frame at all.
