Western Grebes have some of the most complex courtship rituals in the avian world. The illustrated behavior is the prelude to their most spectacular display...
I was quite surprised to see that the rushing display is not limited to the courtship season. While not as frequently seen, rushing can be observed throughout the spring and summer.
amazing documentation of these mating western grebes. it must be fun to watch and photograph. i like the way you processed the last shot. it has a very twinkley silhoutte sunset romantic feel to it. great work.

The star effect is actually really simple to accomplish - just shoot at f22. I should have included the exif info.
