The best nature photography of the past decade has captured the amazing world of Australian wildlife, from sly seals to voracious snakes.

These images have been compiled in Australian Geographic’s Wild Australasia: 10th Anniversary of the ANZANG Photo Contest, showcasing animals caught in action. Their unusual and everyday rituals make for fascinating photography.

In 2011, Ofer Levy photographed the drinking behavior of a gray-headed flying fox, swooping low and gliding across the water with their bellies and then licking their wet fur as they flew away.

In 2012, St John Pound captured an echidna foraging for ants in the Narawntapu National Park in Tasmania.

In 2013, a beautiful black and white photo of black-winged stilts in their courtship dance was taken by Dan Giselsson in Charleville, Queensland.

Grey-headed flying-fox drinking behavior. They swoop low, skimming the water with their belly. They then lick their wet fur as they fly and continue licking when perched nearby. Such behavior usually occurs at dusk and night but when the temperature reaches 35°C and above, they will also drink during the day

Survival of the fittest! It was an overcast, wet and miserable morning as photographer Trevor Penfold crawled commando-style across the wet beach on Stewart Island, off the southern tip of the South Island of New Zealand to capture two oystercatcher chicks (family Haematopodidae) battle endlessly, neither one wanting to give in to the other

The beautiful courtship dance of black-winged stilts captured in Charleville, Queensland, began with the female stilt (Himantopus himantopus), on the right, clearing the little sand mound by picking up and tossing away any extraneous sticks. She then stooped forward, inclining her whole body, which immediately attracted the male. The male circled the female as she slowly and gracefully spun around on the spot. Dan Giselsson, 2013

Little egret grabs little fish as the sunset over Chilli Beach, Cape York, Queensland, this little egret (Egretta garzetta) was hunting small fish trapped in the tidal pools on the sand flats. It was running and jumping after its prey in almost feverish excitement, knowing that there wasn’t much light left. David Stowe, 2013

The small fruiting bodies of bird’s nest fungi (Crucibulum sp.) are completely closed when first formed. Then the top crumbles away, leaving a cup containing spore-bearing tissues called peridioles. When raindrops land in the cup, the peridioles are propelled into the air, dispersing the spores. Photographed in East Harbour Regional Park, Wellington, New Zealand. Eric Burger, 2009
