Hello Feathered Friends Lovers, Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 281

I was thinking that this is the worst time for birding, the middle of the summer, but I was wrong. Each season is good for birding and all you need to be dressed accordingly, take your time and enjoy the nature. After this short introduction, I open the next round and we will be having Free Theme again.

My photo today shows Golden Oriole, a bird with melodical voice.

ROUND 281
SHOW ME A PICTURE OF BIRD

FREE THEME

Now is your turn and let me see your photos of birds, but first read carefully the rules below⬇️

Rules

Show me your photo of a bird, following these rules:

• The photo must be your own.

• Post in the community Feathered Friends

• You may add more photos, but you should state which one is your entry, otherwise the first will be taken into account. Tell us something about your photo/s.

• Put in the title of your post that this is an entry for the contest. (Optional) Use #smap as a tag.

Last, but not least - have fun!

If you create quality post with more images and interesting story about them, making extra effort can give you bigger upvotes and attract curators. Keep that in mind.
