sunbathing Redstart. 2

A couple of poses of the same female redstart. Wensleydale in the English Yorkshire Dales this Summer. You can't see properly, but it had an ant in its mouth and was smearing it over its feathers. De-mite anti-parasite process. I think I prefer the previous picture. The Orange is amazing. Got very excited because these were the only Redstarts we've seen this year.
