For the 9th Winged Wednesday, I have selected a photo of Western Bluebirds titled "Drinking Buddies."

Very colorful scene Eric. Always a hard act to follow one of your posts.

This is a shot of some geese in flight at the Ridgefield Wildlife Refuge:

Thanks, Alan. Superb photo against a cloudy sky

You've seen geese fly in a "V" formation. Ever notice that one side of the "V" is long than the other? Do you know why? (there are more birds on that side)

Thanks for starting this Eric and beautiful trio of blue birds. Here is my own water reflection.

Ha Ha, and why did the chicken cross the road?

Love it Eric! What an awesome shot, maybe one of the best ever? Getting 3 birds with their reflections is really special.

That's a great reflection Ben.

Mine is from Pismo Beach this last Sunday. The marine layer was heavy on the coast at times, and so the Pelican's would glide by in pretty low formations.

Nice! FYI... A collection of pelicans is called a pod

How interesting! I would not have guessed that. Thanks Eric.

I went outside when I took my lunch today looking for wings. The last few days have been so still, hot and not cloud cover; so not much moving around a noon...this is pretty much the wings I found after my dogs flushed out the quail I had in my sights to shoot.

when I squawk at people, I usually turn my back so they can't see my face too
