A new location? Perhaps the juvenile from last year? One male and two females.

Thanks Chris, I knew this was an adult but earlier this year I saw a young male just coming into his 'colours'. My comment was meant to reflect that perhaps this was the younger male as it was a fair distance from the 'known' bower.
