A Eurasian Treecreeper (Certhia familiaris) is caught mid-bath in shallow water, its streaked brown and white plumage thoroughly soaked and ruffled. Water droplets arc upward around the bird, frozen in mid-air by the shutter. The bird faces right, its distinctive long curved bill raised slightly, one dark eye alert. The tail and wing feathers fan out in the water. The background is a soft bokeh of grey stone and green moss. The still water surface reflects the bird's shape below. Photo by Geert Klein Breteler.
Good morning, today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Splash any bird capture with a splash of water, wave breaking or droplets of water on the bird.
