Juvenile Rivalry
During one of my photo shoots at Rietvlei Nature Reserve, I came across two juvenile black shouldered kites sitting on opposite perches.
The one suddenly flew off and seconds later started a mock attack on the subject in my viewfinder. The attack consisted of one flyby only.
From the series of images below the image above clearly shows the anxiety experienced by the victim.
Patience is required to produce timeless natural history photographs. Spending time with you subjects will eventually lead to spectacular opportunities,
but keep in mind that not all opportunities will end in keepers.
