Morning Ablution

A calm, mild morning on High Prairie. We sat on the deck relaxing and enjoying morning coffee and tea. We saw deer and a variety of birds at the bath; one of the visitors was this Western Tanager. I like the bird's reflection in the water, and the light reflecting off the few drops of water falling off the edge of the bath. 

Tanagers have an interesting call and song. Here is a link to Western Tanagers on the Cornell Lab of Ornithology website, if you want to hear their song or learn more about this pretty, little bird.
