Field Notes

Description:

Robin having a bath in my pond; the birds are bathing often, likely motivated by the constant pollen in the air from the loblolly pines right now.

Habitat:

My yard

Thanks for your nice comments, everyone! Tom15, I enjoyed the second photo as well; looks like s/he is getting tired from the exertion as the bath went on for quite a while!
