Here's a series of images of a Swallow-tailed Kite pair during nesting season. After the pair mates, the female always waits on the perch for her "goodie." Here the male is trying to hand off her off a frog. He failed on each of his 3 passes/attempts and, in my next series, I"ll demonstrate how he finally succeeded in making his "payment in full."
I don't have many series to share here b/c I rarely process more than one image from a series. My second frame is my favorite and what I would consider the best of this series. I'll try to think of this forum in the future when processing. It's fun to see the behavior and/or action play out in a series.
