That display looks like it's meant to intimidate, but if he soon had her up on the dance floor it must be all good. |

I'm agree with some others...she looks scared or annoyed. Neat capture though. It's something you don't see everyday. |

Beautiful image. So fortunate to see them and at courtship. Wakkerstroom Wetland? On my bucket list :) Sure a tighter crop will show them off but as an avid bird photographer displaying their habitat is also just as important. Keep it up!
Glad you're using (and haven't sold) that Siggy 170-500mm. I shot this with one recently. In the right hands they are fabulous...I usually U/E mine by EV -0.7 in broad daylight. |

Nicely captured indeed. It̢۪s the brown in his wings that I̢۪m continually drawn back too. Such a wonderful colour. |

Great catch! She looks both coy and annoyed at the same time. Thanks for sharing this! |

This is a fabulous capture - a tighter crop would be nice if possible obviously - but this is fantastic. I'd be very proud if I got something like this. |

nice shot - great detail on the open wing of the male bird.
the female does appear to be a little unimpressed. ;) |

Gorgeous birds and a capture in the wild, besides!
Wow.
If you had the pixels, it would be fun to see an even tighter crop... |
