Courtship

On the Galapagos island of Española, I was fortunate to observe at close hand the courtship ritual of the endangered Waved Albatross. This image doesn’t really do justice to this spectacular event, but I did shoot video with my Sony a1 of the bill clacking and trumpeting.

Specific Feedback Requested

Any comments would be welcome.
