Oh my!!! What a great picture that is Gerry.

You've done a super job catching this ritual, very well done lad.

I'll upload it to The Opus article shortly. Many thanks for sharing it with us.

Oh, so a romantic capture and not a battle going on! ;) A great moment to capture Gerry!
 
A fantastic behavioural shot, Gerry, and so nicely composed.
