After a long day spent in the city, it was time to unwind and spend some time with the Bluebirds. Being in nature is such a great stress reliever, sitting quietly, listening and watching all the birds around, nothing beats it! I will never tire of the Bluebirds, they are one of my favourites to photograph. When I came across this male, the sun was beginning to set, causing everything around to be gold. From where I was sitting, the sun was almost directly behind the Bluebird, and the reflection from the water had me wearing my sunglasses while trying to look through my camera. I was so happy when he decided to do some stretches and how his feathers looked with the sunlight.
