Here's a few more. This is a sequence of the male sneaking up behind the female to try to get a bite.

Thanks for sharing these fantastic shots. The 2nd last picture of the male peeking over the female is comical.

Am I the only one who saw those series of shots with the typical "tip-toe" music from cartoons running through my head?  DOOM-dee-doomp. DOOM-dee-doomp.

I'll just go back to lurking now...   :oops:

It was hilarious seeing the Reuben sneaking around behind Lawrie, trying to get close to the food. Just watching him pace back and forth was priceless. It was funnier than a cartoon.

Kin ... excellent photos!

The expression on both of their faces and in their eyes in each picture says it all!  

Final Picture ... Lawrie: "Back Off!", Reuben: "Darn!".  (Polite Version!)

Jo-Anne   :lol:

It's very neat to see the series.  It looks almost like a comic strip  :)

She's not "mantling" over it, so I think her mate was fairly safe... It might even have been an invitation from her to him.
