This set is a result of this week's book club assignment but they seemed interesting as a sequence though perhaps only to me.

As always feedback and suggestions are appreciated.

This is part of the growing obsessive portfolio of the life of dam birds.

The contestants meet and posture.

They reminded me of human contestants in a boxing match or a karate competition.

I'm pretty enamored of them myself. I can't stay away from that smelly place, and when I'm at home I am constantly tinkering with those Dam Birds:).

The strutting victor - head held high, chest puffed out, wings held wide...just too too cool!

The light, shadows and large sold forms add great interest to the story, even if this were a stand-alone shot. His waterworld kingdom.

You must come to Phils min. Every small town has a cock fighting pit and there is very often cock fighting on TV.
The victor gets to strut his stuff the loser gets eaten by dogs. Cannot bring myself to watch a cockfight but told its very exciting.
Your protagonists seem quite civilized and prepared to follow the Queensbury rules. Nice set min.
Can I suggest Roger and Albert for when you christen them?
