A young bird with it's head turned to look over it's shoulder. Head feathers are black, the ones on it's back are just starting to show an iridescent blue. Below the beak is a mall patch of rust colour. The beak has the telltale yellow at the corners that juveniles have.

#Birds #BarnSwallow #Fledgling For today's alternate BTOD #LookinUp A fledgling Barn Swallow who was perched on a branch below me at river's edge. It was patiently waiting for a parent to come by with food. Too young to know any better, it watched me for a bit before turning it's back on me.

Some people wanna take a high dive into a drink,
Some people wanna watch the world’s swirl into the sink.

Why would you argue, “is the glass half full?”
It’s a mess.
I drank the first half;
You can drink the rest.
