Hello friends,
a few days ago I was at one of my favorite places to watch birds. From far I saw two Jays bathing in a puddle. I drove my car very slowly and carefully closer. Of course they flew up. I brought my car in a good position and hoped that they would not have enough from bathing yet.
A few minutes later one of them appeared. The bath lasted exactly 2 minutes and I could take more than fifty shots. During shooting I could feel how this little chap liked the water.

It is not easy to get close to these birds.
