Watching these small birds take bath in late winter afternoons is indeed very interesting. If you have a look from a distance, you might think that badminton shuttles have been kept inverted. 

Shot with Nikon D7000 + Nikkor 300 mm f/4 ( Non VR ) + 1.4X TC

1 / 1200s

f / 7.1

ISO 640

At focal length 420 mm

Thanks for the stop.

Great behavior and action image, Biru. Love the pose and all of the water droplets the bird is thrusting into the air.

well capture on this action that is going on and with a superb bg that works well with this image.

Nice behavioural action captured very well( try a more open aperture or longer focal length to make shallower DOF to separate the bg), a beautiful bathing shot indeed.
