Always the same

The can neither live with, nor without each other.
Battling during the breeding season, peacefully foraging together beyond the rest of the year.
Presumably two females fighting over a mate, while he is garding the nest.

Terrific picture. Low perspective makes background wonderful and complementary. DOF perfect and 1/4000 SS brilliant. Shot to be proud of.
