kori bustard battle


We watched these 2 kori bustard males stay locked in this position for 25 minutes, each pushing and trying to prove dominance. There was a female watching from a discreet distance. Finally one bird gave up and left, while the remaining one strutted and showed his feathers.
The resolution is poor due to much magnification.
