Same common starling as seen in this photo.

When I took this photo I was waiting for the person in the van to pop their head out. I saw them do it before and I missed the shot. They didn’t end up poking out their head again whilst I was there but I’m happy with this result.

This is my submission into the two hundred-and-fifty-ninth Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. The theme for this one is “Unbound Summer“.

Being in Australia and this being taken a few days ago it is technically a winter photo. However, as it feels like summer, I feel it fits the theme. Beyond that, it’s not often I get this opportunity which I had due to wandering around during a few hours of downtime.

The host of the Lens-Artists challenges cycles weekly between the following people:

Week 1 – Tina

Week 2 – Patti

Week 3 – Ann-Christine aka Leya

Week 4 – Amy

Week 5 – John Steiner

Week 6 – Sofia Alves

Week 7 – Anne Sandler

Week 8 – Donna

Week 9 – Guest host

Dan Fenner of Departing in 5 Minutes is guest-curating this one. As with the rest of July, the next one is also guest-curated and the themes have been announced in advance:

July 29: Janet Webb of This That and The Other Thing with “Overlooked”.

I recommend participating in the challenges as they provide a fun way to interpret theme. If not participating, then at least you should still check out what others of the Lens-Artists community are submitting.

I hope you enjoy.
