They look so funny wet, love the wing colors and details, Nice capture.
Mary Campbell
Looking again I think you have several potential pictures here as well, with cropping the wing in water would make a great abstract with visual interest from the line and color. Just a thought.

Interesting moment, well-captured… Like some others, I thought at first one was injured.
Mark Lee replied
LOL .. they are actually helping others with their feathers. But you are right. Think I should put a disclaimer :)
