Description
This Tufted Titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) was bathing in a creek in a local park. This spot is apparently a preferred bathing location for titmice and for Yellow-Rumped Warblers, but the light was difficult, and weeds in the foreground limited my ability to get clean focus on the birds. The watercolor effect brought out the colors in the water and saved this shot.

Beautiful treatment of this photo with the water effects, and a wonderful pose by the talented bird, too.

Thank you. I have really like the effect of the processing on this one, but it doesn't seem to attract much interest, so I really appreciate your observations.
