Wearing a crown of wet feathers,
a soaked songbird fills the hole in the sky
left behind by a spring rain.

Thanks Zoe. Can a sparrow get any cuter?

Quite an interesting and different flight shot. The splash of yellow really adds to the feel.

Thanks Mark. Those small yellow flowers aren’t around for long.

I try to use them in my images when I can.

Brava! Brava! Offering applause for all that is seen from above.

Lucky bird! What a view. What I wouldn’t give to trade places for a day.
