Royal Spoonbills at the edge of a flooded Cooper Creek.
The photo was taken after wading out a kilometre or so when returning to the bank. Behind me the flooding possible extended for about fourteen kilometres.
On the wedding day, there's dancing
There's spooning and mounting excitement
A potential rival is warned off
The excitement is not all that mounts
