Sorry to bore you all with yet another "bird in a pond" shot but as they say " That's what I do "

Usual pool set up.

I must say that I am really impressed with the variety of birds that visit your pond. This is a really sweet image with terrific detail, color, and of course a perfect head turn.

Thanks david .I do get a fair variety as you say. I have three pools on the go and it takes a lot of time up but not being very active anymore it takes the place of traveling.. We can't all be jet setters. Theres a few I haven't got yet and some of those I never will !!
Thanks again.

Beautiful detail in the bunting, John, and your pool always seems to provide a slightly different aspect, so I don't mind seeing a lot of images from it.

John, as soon as I see these images from one of your pools I smile. I can't help it, because the birds are so cute, the detail and colors are always so good, and you always get just perfect head turns.
