not sure if this was a courtship ritual, - but we just chanced to watch it - we were quite a distance away, - had seen the one heron a few mins earlier, but it flew further away, so we followed it - and suddenly realized it had landed close to another heron, so I captured some images. It was interesting to watch. Was using a new 1.4 extender for the first time, so some images are sharper than the others, but some of you might be interested to see them, - this was the first time we'd ever seen anything like this happening, so were quite excited about it :) Initially thought perhaps there was going to be a fight when the one landed so close to the other heron, then started wondering about the courtship possibility, by the stances etc.

thankyou Shreekant. Wish it was sharper, but was happy to capture these anyway.

thanks Alex, - not the best of shots, but it all happened so fast, and we just felt lucky to have been there to see it. We were far from where the herons were.
