superb action photo, Stanley, those yellow tips of the tail feathers are wonderful, a real topper, many tfs!!
 
A delightful capture of these waxwings enjoying their bath, Stanley.
 
Nice! CWW’s came through my area about 6 weeks ago, disappeared with a cold front, and reappeared with a warm front. I’m assuming the cold front pushed them south and the warm front headed them back north. I love those touches of bright yellow and red. Great image here.
