The beautiful pre-historic birds aren't always as elegant as presented in most of the photos....like here, during bathing in a 10cm deep water, a not often seen and captured site. Some movements they do are impressive for sure. I wish for not to have the oof elements in front of the bird. I did not want to clone them out for the water drops.
