During our recent waterfowl survey, we noticed that the Crested Caracara seemed a little agitated.  We came across a group of three squabbling over each other in a tree and wondered what the fuss was all about.

One of the trio was run off, and all became clear to us a moment later!

A short while later, the male took off.
The female seemed happy enough to be alone again.

During the remainder of the day we saw more of these birds flying around, no doubt looking for love!
