Caught this shot of a male Red Winged Blackbird perched on the flower stalk of a American Nelumbo plant. He was singing the prettest tune and flexing his wings and tail feathers in what appeared to be trying to attract a member of the female persuasion. Funny how the guys always flex their muscles(or feathers) when the ladies are around. Isn't love just grand. Ha Ha!

Very nice shot of that red-winged blackbird Randy ! And yes, it doesn't matter what species we`re talking about, human included, the males have to 'strut their stuff' to suitably impress the ladies !
Thanks Rick for stopping by. It is amazing how similar traits are carried out by very different species.
