Highlights from 2012: Great Bustards

Great Bustards (Otis tarda), Nature Protection Area in Brandenburg
(north of Saxony, and about halfway between Leipzig and Berlin) ,
March 30, 2012 (display period).

These birds are part one the last breeding populations in Germany. The male on the  left has initiated a courtship display...
...and now in full display, a.k.a. "foam bath"!
