Very nice, it's always nice to see those birds nesting, at least they still have some place where to stay

Where is he doing in first 2 pictures with the neck?

The neck postures are just the beginning of their mating ritual. They raise and lower their necks, pumping up and down and then they spread those fan feathers out even further like a puffball. I was hoping to catch that on video, but just a week or two early I think. I won't be able to go back for another week or two, so hope I don't miss it this year and can catch it on video.

Ah that would be nice if you could get in time to catch it, I was suspecting it was something to attract females 😅
