I liked this moment so much........and I was so happy that I was able to witness and photograph it...
The only pity was that I couldn't get closer (that would have disturbed them), or actually: that I don't own a 500mm prime that would have given this photograph the nice & smooth bokeh it deserves.

Edit: So to honour this beautiful nature I decided to blur the background artificially to give all attention to these gorgeous birds...
