I’m not in love with this shot. The light is a little harsh and I could do without the stick in the male’s eye, but I was where I was, when I was, and this is what I got. Having never seen the behavior before, I was happy.
The male came in and landed, followed quickly by the female, and then the male went into full display. She seems extremely interested.
I think they’re a couple- at least for now.
