Observation details
Watched pair foraging along river for 20 minutes. Male summoned mate from across river with a couple of quiet calls, then flew over and copulated with her while holding a cranefly in his bill. After copulation, he continued holding the cranefly for a few minutes, and then the female took it and he flew down a couple of branches. Pair then continued foraging together, not more than 6-7 metres apart. Amazing sight.
