Well, actually now I have two tunes in my head when I look at his picture. Both in Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. This is the best weekly challenge ever! :smile: Any guesses?

O.K. I waited for a while to give someone else a chance but I never was good at being patient!!!! I'll guess Don't Push Me , by 50 Cent ? Or Grandmaster Flash 's , The Message? Lyrics ,don't push me cuz I'm close to the edge!

don't know much about 50 Cent but I doubt that he's in the rock n roll hall of fame :smile: . On the other hand Grandmaster Flash is and "cuz I'm close to the edge" was ringing in my head while looking at this :cool: , although rest on the song is completely unrelated :rolleyes: ...

Now the other tune doesn't have anything to do with the picture title and song's title reflects much better this photo it self. Think more rock than 50 Cent :wink: .

Wow! I love this shot, Andrius! Cute, fuzzy bird... beautifully sparkling water... soft bokeh in the background...

The only thing that could be better is the harsh shadows. They're a bit distracting - but I imagine this little guy wasn't likely to stand there waiting for better light. :smile: So I won't complain. Besides - the shadow isn't on the bird, so it doesn't kill the image. I think I can see just a touch of his eye, which makes this especially nice. Beautiful shot - and the song is just right for it. Well done!

Thanks for making me LOL Andrius :^) Pleased I checked some of the other WP's and came across this one! There's any number of captions I reckon that would work well with this, but the music theme certainly narrows them down and your creative imagination came up trumps, congratulations and very well done :^)
