Spring-Summer - 285

Spring-Summer - 285 (Merops persicus)

Spring-Summer - 285

... continued from 284

Hugely disappointed ...

... the male flew away
to another female
... who has been
watching the whole
activity from a
distance rather
curiously ...
... soon as the male
alighted and offered
the food to her
she accepted it
gleefully ...

There are two
possibilities ...

... either the male
came to the wrong
female ... or
... she was not
yet through with
her preparation ... !!!
