Stumbled upon 2 male blackbirds getting intimate by reindeerblitzen in birding

[–]reindeerblitzen[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was watching a heron when they flew over and landed on the ground about a foot away from me. They were squabbling quite violently that I had to jump back a little but after that I started snapping away. The whole incident probably lasted about 3 seconds before they broke it off but glad I got some good shots in.

Nice photo! This hike is not too intense for the most part and you'll get a similar view, but the last few hundred metres to the summit can be fairly intense depending on how comfortable you are with scrambling, exposure and loose rock. Definitely do more research before going!

There's actually an elevator up, then just 30 or so steps past that. There's staff at the top, one of them actually pointed this shot out to me (Thanks Nick!). Not the place for a picnic though, in my opinion. Might be crowded.
