The Grey Fantail

Grey Fantail (Rhipidura albiscapa)

 "The Grey Fantail is most easily recognised by its constantly fanned tail and agile aerial twists and turns."


In this case there is nothing aerial to show because I am too slow with the camera to catch it.



But here is one at the bird bath.




It seemed to be taken with its reflection at first



and then, 


into it!
There can be few more energetic splashers.


Then a few more moments wagging its tail at its reflection 
or so it seemed

Hmmmm ... there's that one again ... oh well.




and *gone*
