The adult on the left is showing greeting behaviour. Head pointed up and neck elongated. When the mate lands it will do this too and strut around the other bird.
I like this because the view of the right-hand bird is a bit different and my goal in photographing the birds of this small colony is to show the behaviour. Very discouraging though as there is only one chick left from a dozen. Half the adults have left and a couple are starting to renest. Four nests with eggs still and a total of 3 chicks. 10D, 100-400 @ 275 mm, 1/2500 @ f10, ISO 800, handheld from kayak. Full frame.
