Kingfisher Courtship?

[Bill Dix]

Or maybe these Pied Kingfishers were squabbling over who gets the highest perch? Another from Botswana a few weeks ago.

Very nice interaction Bill. I see this was quite a popular perch for many species. You did great with nice head angles for both birds.

This is really good Bill. Tack sharp, great interaction. is this the same perch as before?
I could see a true black and white version,

As a high key image this is really cool since the black-and-white birds complement the flat light perfectly. It's
a really nice display of contrast.

Super interaction and wonderful exposure, this is a pleasure to view!

[Bill Dix]

Thank you all. Yes Isaac and Gail, we passed by this perch on several occasions and saw several different species using it.

I love the interaction Bill, of course would have been better if you had a nice colorful BG but you did well given the circumstances
