From Thermal CA last week, after a deluge from a rare thunderstorm, for me anyway, I was fortunate to find a small flock of these beautiful birds foraging at this pool of water early in the morning. Thanks for looking.

These are beautiful little birds! I saw them for the first time ever on Friday at Bosque del Apache. I love the colors and form of them and you got a nice pose here.
