Bathing Cleaning Feather Feathers Flapping Grooming Oystercatcher Oystercatchers Preening Splashing Waders Washing Wings

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this shot captured by Bill Coster, we witness the glamorous world of avian self-care. Meet our star, COS-1211, an American Oystercatcher with a flair for wing-flapping after a refreshing wash at Fort de Soto in Florida. With feathers glistening and water droplets dancing around it, this elegant bird showcases its impeccable grooming skills. The oystercatcher seems to be indulging in some serious pampering as it splashes about in the crystal-clear waters of the USA's sunshine state. As if auditioning for America's Next Top Bird Model, our feathered friend strikes a pose mid-flap. Its wings create a mesmerizing spectacle against the backdrop of shimmering waves. It’s hard not to envy this bird's ability to turn even mundane activities like cleaning into an enchanting performance! The image captures both grace and playfulness as our oystercatcher revels in its watery sanctuary. With each flap and splash, it reminds us that life is too short not to enjoy every moment – even during bath time! So next time you find yourself feeling stressed or overwhelmed, take inspiration from COS-1211 and embrace your inner birdie; let loose, have fun and make a splash!
