Greetings,
These couple are in courtship. They have been playing with each other for most part of the morning. Comments are welcomed. Enjoy...

George you've captured and intimate moment between this pair. I might have cropped this a bit to bring the viewer in closer to the action but it's still a nice capture.

Amazing shots George. Where are you getting all these shots? I mean, what's the landscape like around where you live?

Greetings,
Thanks for viewing and praise. I live in a small city which used to thrieved on tin minning for about half a century. So these leave a lot of ponds from ex-minning quarries around the city are. These are perfect places for birds to build their nests, with abundant supply of fishes and insects. Since these are ex-minning quarries, they are accessible by SUVs. If you look at my country side posts, you should get an idea of this area. I do enjoy my country side very much. Enjoy...

Beautiful!

Great gallery site, too. Didn't look at all the pictures, but you have fine eye for your nature shots.
