This was a tricky challenge, and I'm really unsure whether I'm actually getting the theme right with this image or not. But this water spigot at our store has a slow-drip leak, and all the sparrows know it. It's so adorable the way they perch on top and bend over to drink from it. When I shot this, I had in mind "Bring your own beak" as a play on the acronym for "Bring your own beverage." "Bring your own bird" would work, too, I suppose.
At any rate, I love the silhouette on its own. :-)

Great comments, everyone! This is the sort of moment that ALMOST makes me want to get into short-form video.

this is such a great photo! Love the processing with the vignette - gives a mysterious vibe.
The silhouette is really wonderful - I don't think I'd have had the idea to take a photo in that situation.
I didn't know the abbreviation BYOB (you know: language issues) but I was confident that it was fitting when voting
This has me stumped. 1. It's a color photo but it's mostly black and white.
2. The bird is upside down. 3. BYOB is generally Bring Your Own followed by Bottle, Beer, Booze.. and there's none of that here. It's definitely not Bring you own Bird because that doesn't make sense.
SO........... Bring Your Own Beak? Hahahaha.
All good.
BYOB
