A mesmerising spectacle unfolds as the sun sets over the vast tropical floodplains of Australia's far north. Herons of several species and spoonbills scattered throughout the area during the day gather in a backwater. They huddle together, taking shelter and warmth in each other's company. However, they are not alone. Black kites, with their sharp eyes and swift wings, keep a watchful eye on the waders, their anticipation palpable as they wait for an opportunity to snatch any prey that the waders may capture.
