Just a short fun post

As I said previously, we are daily on the run with little time for photography.  October is approaching fast and then we will be away until mid-November.  The birds though captivated me this morning in the bath and I had to grab the camera.  The other shots are just odd ones that I have taken since my last post.

House sparrows (Passer domesticus) having fun...

As above...

Watch out I am about to bomb you all 😉

Getting splashed sitting on the stone elephant waiting patiently.

Great tit (Parus major) hanging on to our house stone wall.

As above, taking a drink with little water left after all the bathing!

Black redstart (Phoenicurus ochruros) on the roof.  

Common wood pigeons (Columba palumbus).

I am not sure what bird this was but I just like the photo!!

    Hi Diane - wonderful ... they enjoy their playtime too. Great shots and particularly of the moon - looks like it's travelling leaving a mirage behind it. Plenty of water here today for the birds to duck and dive in ... take care and good to see a post - cheers Hilary

      It is so funny watching them especially when they all try to cram in together. Keep well Diane

    We had the same thing last week, (before the cold and big snow !@) ... about 8 or 10 of 'em trying to all get into the bird bath at the same time. Mayhem.... then, a poor robin showed up and looked around, like...what happened to the water? ... this thing was full earlier.....
