Hi Hector, Nice shots of the CIs! The shadows are pretty interesting. Nice bokeh and composition too!

Great shots, Hector! :thumbsup: The shadows add to the interest of the composition of the butts. What was that last pair up to? Had they just finished "doing their business"? At first I thought it was some PhotoShop trick! :bsmile:

Thanks tomatoes, falcon, and commander! I deliberately included the shadows inside the frame.

I thought they were going to mate too, but they just 'dance' around from leaf to leaf in this manner for quite a while! :hmmm:

Nice pose for the third shots. I always miss the CI, just not my luck.

Should be around. From past records, they seems to be around end/beginning of months.

Wow :what: . Almost miss out this high standard shots here.
#4 is very unique. I think not likely to get this composition again.
