Excellent capture of these two. Too bad it doesn't end well for the male.

+1. As already noted, this image should be clicked on to view large to fully appreciate it. The stick/perch is also very interesting.

I love how they blend into the stick and liches- excellent shot -the textures and raindrops add a lot to the scene. Terrific detail.

The rain and the background colors are an excellent addition to this fine behavior image.
