📷 The Unsuccessful Courtship - 失敗的求愛steemCreated with Sketch.

in photography •  7 years ago 

Sometimes it is hard to find love... 有時候愛是可遇不可求啊...

Today while walking in a park I witnessed nature's cruel reality in action...

今天在公園裏我見證了自然界的殘酷現實...

It began as love at first sight...

一開始的一見鍾情...

Things escalated quickly...

心動馬上就行動...

Sadly it was not meant to be...

可惜對方沒興趣...

And thus the bird is still alone...

求愛失敗只好另找新歡...

These two birds are Malayan night herons. I saw them while walking in the park and decided to observe them and was rewarded with this failed courting ritual :)

我在公園裡散步時看到這兩隻黑冠麻鷺，看著他們求愛過程感到很有趣 :)

Equipment Used
