Bathing Blackbird.

Shot whilst walking through the local country park. Blackbirds are usually quite skittish but I think due to the heat this guy was more interested in cooling down than getting away from me. Thanks for looking.

I love the patting the water with the wing shot



It's a dogs life, yeah right!

This is getting so frustrating, I broke the tendon in my knee in March and have been pretty immobile, so all the pictures I have taken since I joined the forum have been taken at home, I cant wait to be able to get out and take some shots

The first one is my favorite. I like the ripple in the water. I like the color and smoothness of the water as well. Nice shots! :thumbsup:

I did not know they got that big. You can see I know very little about birds.
