at my birdbath

today we are expecting temperatures around 39*, so I moved the birdbath into the shade. This gorgeous Bronzewing had no problem spotting  it. He enjoyed a cool drink, but didn't have a bath. (now that I think about it, I have not seen Bronzewings have a bath, have yoy?)

Lovely bird and blue tongue.  I have a resident blue tongue lizard that only has one eye.  It is quite easy to startle him by approaching on his blind side :-/
