Frazzled starling

A disappointing outing with the Sony in 90 degree heat today, although a (very) few captures turned out. I even saw a blue jay, for the first time ever, but he was too far away and in the shade and left as soon as I tried to get closer. I do have a picture of sorts, but probably better not to post it ;-).

The oranges have it, posted earlier

Sony RX10 IV
1/500s f/4.0 at 220.0mm iso125 full exif

An impressive starling in what appears to be newly washed raiment , which he clearly feels good about! V

Great shot and probably just out of the bird bath. Looks like your being scolded, Helen. ~V

What an expression! Probably getting some of his own medicine he puts on other birds...

What a great pose, although he doesn't look that happy with you taking his picture. Great light off the feathers.

An impressive shot... every feather appears to be delineated. Very cool pose too of this starling, frazzled seems to be just what he is! VV
