Nice behavior shot, well done.
What fun behavior you captured...the thrashing of beaks in the water and all the bubbles...just like the black-necked stilts we have here. You achieved a terrific angle on the the birds. The eyes are clearly visible and really stand out.
Love seeing the water droplets and the female in a submissive position. This is such super behavior that if it were mine, I'd crop tighter...just past the reflection of the tree on the left which is a bit distracting and then a little bit all around. It makes for a stronger image.
