Dark legs and striped head
The very dark tibias and mostly dark femora, combined with the two, thick dark stripes on the top of the head and the complete arrow-shaped stripe on the back of the head; makes it look more like this one.

I find it interesting reading your comments. I'm thinking that it helps to know what to look for. When I first got a response on this one, I looked at pictures of both and didn't see any difference. bit now I am seeing some. Thanks for your help.
