Have you voted for Caption This #6 yet? If not please go here. It’s easy, and fun – and FREE!
The setting: At the Grootkolk wilderness camp, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. During a quieter period at the water bowl, the little bird below decided to take a bath, and then sat grooming itself. I originally captioned the photo “I wonder how far back I can lean before I fall off?” What do you think is happening here?
For further inspiration see the post Frenzy at the “water hole” on my photoblog.

When you spend time watching animals and birds in the bush, you often see them in amusing situations or poses. It always makes me wonder what they’re thinking. It’s so easy to ascribe human emotions to them. So I thought I’d give you all a chance to think up captions for some of the funnier photographs we have taken. The winner (picked by the readers) will unfortunately will not be getting a big prize, just have the honour of being named the winner! If you can think of a good one, please leave a comment.
The Rules:
- You may only enter one caption. Keep captions under 200 characters long.
- Entries for this Caption This close on Sunday 6 November at 08:00 GMT +02:00.
- After the competition closes, I’ll create a poll so that readers can vote for their favourite. You only get to vote once – use it wisely! You can (theoretically) vote for yourself, but please only do so if you are convinced yours is the best caption.
- Since, you the reader chooses the winner, anyone may enter (including me and Willie!
). Hey, it’s my blog!
Finally, I’ll win the prize for the darkest tan.
If I practice hard enough, they’ll cast me for Swan Lake.
LOL This is what I was also thinking about!
Birds taking a bath are so funny.
My neck hurts, I must have slept wrong again.
