CommentWhen I spotted these Brolgas feeding in the early morning stillness I had this competition in mind and hoped for a shot of them grazing face to face. After some time they did come together and gave this crossed image of them and their reflection. Although the reflection is blurred I still consider it a good image for this competition.
