Two Japanese Cranes on Hokkaido during their courtship dance. Unfortunately clipped the wings of the right bird. Hope it works for you nonetheless.
Thanks for looking. JR

Great interaction and setting, the raised wings are great, too. It would have been even better if you would have been further to your right.
Great action captures, too bad about clipping the wings on the right. whites are borderline on some parts of the body, I'm sure you can recoup at conversion. Thanks for sharing this one.
Beautiful birds, not sure if you could have gotten a lower angle to put more of the birds against the dark BG
Thank you all for your comments. Unfortunately, there is a barrier surrounding the area where the cranes congregate and you can't go much lower. JR
