Description: Eastern bluebirds communicate to one another with wing flips. The male was signaling to his mate that was perched nearby

Pertinent technical details or techniques:
My standard work flow and the 1/2500 sec exposure time was almost not quick enough to capture the wing flip. This pair is nesting at a box near our garden and has lots of fenceposts for perching.
Is this a composite? No

Excellent image, Jim, with a very cool pose. With all the lichen on that fence post, I wouldn’t hesitate to put this one in Avian, but I’ll take it here
Perfect timing, Jim, and I love the title you gave it too. It does look like he is pointing. A wonderful capture, for sure. I’m enjoying our Bluebirds again this year.
