Spinifex Pigeon

These colourful birds are found in association with (dryland) spinifex bushes from central Australia to the northwest coast. As seen in the PiP, this one is in the process of doing a courtship ritual for another which looks suitably unimpressed. :-)

The male tries to seduce the female but it's not an easy task...the preliminary stage of courtship

Thank you, aNNa. In the PiP it enlarges, but I found that doesn't work on phones so I added the small version below so phone users don't miss the second image entirely.
