Description

Thanks for viewing !! :o) - Im not really that satisfied with the focus here but i guess its ok :o) Some of you made a remark about them being in attack formation yesterday, they were !! Every once in while they would land hard on top of the sitting one but only for a fraction of a second though. In the end the sitting one had enough of it and flew off, but one of the hovering hovers followed it around through the grasses. So i guess they were really attacking it, trying to chase it out of their 'territory' :o) Either that or they were trying to mate. At the time, however, i was sure the hovering ones were a different species than the sitting one, but looking at the picture now im not so sure anymore... ah well ;o) Maybe they looked slightly different cos they were males and female, in either case... the hovering ones were on the hunt ;o) Hope you like and have an wonderful wednesday !! :o) - Thanks for all your wonderful comments on my last upload, "Hovers #1" !! -- Many thanks, Jeroen

"So i guess they were really attacking it,...Either that or they were trying to mate."...LOL!Well if it's not one then surely it's the other!Or maybe both!Those hovers are such rough and rowdy bunch!Ya never know...I don't know what you are doing differently,Jeroen,but this pic and yesterdays are literally jumping off my screen.They look incredibly 3-D.Almost scary!LOL!If you knew me,you'd know the last thing I'd want is for one of these guys to be real!-M :)

I prefer #1, but this one is fantastic too, with hovers flying in different directions ! Once more I would already be so happy if I could catch just one with such a focus ! Excellentissime work, Jeroen ! :~)
