Battle Cry

Photographing Greater Prairie Chickens during lekking is not for the timid. Most of the year, they seem unremarkable, but they transform into vibrant "ninja warriors," displaying color and aggression in battles for mates. Feathers fly and blood is drawn; these fights can be deadly.

About Artist

Barbara Fleming

Barbara Fleming is a wildlife photographer based in Colorado. For the past 20 years, she has worked as a full-time photographer. Much of her work has taken place in Africa, particularly in the Serengeti region. Recently, she has shifted her focus to locating areas that provide opportunities to photograph endangered species. She combines her undergraduate studies in anthropology, primatology, and psychology with her extensive field experience to understand and capture wildlife and its complex behaviors. She aims to visually share her experiences with those who may not have the chance to observe animal behaviors, both humorous and serious. Barbara’s images have won awards in numerous national and international competitions. Many of these award-winning images have also been featured in gallery or museum exhibitions in the countries where the awards were received.
