Description
Not the best photo, but I kinda liked their expressions. It was tricky to get since they spooked so easily. So this is taken with my 135mm lens.
I made a little fountain that sits on our deck. Since it's been so hot and dry, the birds love it and I managed to snap this shot of them having a ball of a time. At one time there were five birds sitting here and a few more waiting for their turn. They take it in turns to sit on the fountain top and then fluff themselves up and shake the water off. Very cute.
Thanks for looking.

Very nice & FUN

That's a beautiful picture and what a lovely fountain (much better than my idea of leaving the hose trickling)! You did a great job on both!

Yeah, this is a fun shot alright. I especially like the one on the left leaning over and checking things out! I can't help but notice in my area, there seems to be a larger than normal population of young birds this year. It's very good of you to put out a makeshift fountain, I'm sure you'll be rewarded with fun filled moments from our feathered friends. Nice enchanting shot!!!

I do like what you achieved for the subject.One thing that could perhaps help is a bit more contrast.Bring the droplets out more and give the feathers darker. Good find.

Totally agree about the contrast. This was shot through glass in a great hurry. I tweaked the contrast as much as I dare. You can see the rock under the right hand bird is washed out. So yeah, not the greatest photographically. Thanks for all the comments.

A terrific shot to capture the water droplets suspended in air. You can tell they love it! An inpressive photo and a nice idea too. Wonderful work on all accounts!
