Carla Moore-Williams has had bird baths set up in her yard for quite some time now. Since there are lots of birds in her area, she wanted to create a safe place where they could hang out — and she could in turn have the chance to take awesome pictures of them.
One day, a little bluebird stopped by and decided to take a bath. Carla pulled out her camera, excited to get some snapshots of her guest.
“This particular bird is just one of a large population of eastern bluebirds we have, and I photograph them all every time the opportunity arises. I love to photograph the bluebirds because they make me laugh, especially when they are soaking wet.”
The bluebird was splashing around so much, making the water fly everywhere. The bluebird was having an absolute blast and had no idea that he’d affected his host's photoshoot. He just couldn’t contain his joy.
Carla shared her photos even though she wasn’t too sure about them — but everyone quickly fell in love with them!
“I thought the photos were terrible, but they made people laugh, and that was perfect.”
Carla absolutely loves photographing all the birds who come to visit her backyard, and they in turn love stopping by to snack, bathe and just hang out. They’re not always the easiest subjects to photograph, but at least that makes for some very interesting, often hilarious pictures.
