Same herons from Island Birds XI. A lot of fun watching the routine ... after they score they separate from the rest, bring their catch to tide pool to eat alone.

Do they share, these two, with each other?

It looks like they might have been squabbling over
the fish. Nice capture.

It pays to have your camera with you that's for sure. This is so exciting to see these two lovelies dancing with happiness for their dinner!! Lovely photo. Verena

I think one is jealous. Excellent capture for the heron, and you, of course.

Perfect focus as usual, and the birds caught in a "story-telling" moment, again as you always do. Are they spreading their wings to dry them, or are they just showing off to each other perhaps? The shadows are nice in themselves.

Raising their wings and struttin' to a tune of a successful catch...Wow! Such beautiful details and colour tones! I'm especially enjoying the sense of elation and the lighting. Outstanding work, Elizabeth! Faved.
