I love how it looks as though the flamingos are mirroring each other's movements and unique poses.Ó Please byline: Mrinal Sen/Solent News © Mrinal Sen/Solent News & Photo Agency UK +44 (0) 2380 458800 *** Local Caption *** 1. When and where were these pictures taken? The pictures were taken in May 2024 in Nalsarovar, Gujrat, India 2. Can you describe what you saw? I shoot these images in a wetland in the South of Nalsarovar, Gujrat, India, where these Lesser Flamingos migrate before Monsoon and stay till end of Winter season. What I saw is just spectacular. The lesser flamingo were performing a unique courtship ritual. During the breeding season, large flocks gather and engage in synchronized displays. Males stretch their necks, flap their wings, and perform a distinctive head-flagging dance. This elaborate behavior, accompanied by calls and vivid coloration, attracts females. Pairs form and continue their intricate dance, strengthening their bond. Nalsarovar's shallow waters and abundant food supply make it an ideal breeding ground, supporting thousands of these striking birds. 3. How did you capture this shot? Were you waiting for a while and did they mind your presence? I captured these shots maintaining a reasonable distance because Lesser Flamingos are a bit shy in nature. I, being a nature lover, never disturb any animal/birds and choose to take pictures from a reasonable distance. We must respect the privacy of every life form. 4. Would you agree that it looks like the flamingos are mirroring each other? Did you notice this at the time and were you trying to get images that showed that? Yes, it seems like the flamingos are mirroring each other. Yes. 5. What is your favourite thing about the shots? Their Unique Courtship Ritual. 6. Any other info we may like to know? Lesser flamingo performs this unique courtship ritual only in the breeding season to attract females. 7. What is your preferred full name, age, occupation and where are you from? Name: Mrinal Sen Age: 49 Occupation: Financial Consultant & A Passionate Photographer Residence: Delhi, India
