Jump for joy...

By rogerfry
These pukus were drinking by the river, and every now and then one of them would set off, and do a series of leaps into the air as they raced along the bank. My aim was to photograph one in mid-air, but it didn't quite work out! Most of the in-focus shots have one foot on the ground, and the mid-air shots are a bit blurred......gives me a good reason to go back again next year!

A great set, yes not easy to capture, you need an incredibly fast shutter speed...
