Common wood pigeon (Columba palumbus) pair have been visiting our backyard this summer for bathing on our small pond.

Sepelkyyhkypariskunta (Columba palumbus) on vieraillut tänä kesänä pihallamme nauttien kylvyistä pienessä piha-altaassamme.

Just remember to switch the water frequently. It is great to watch birds and other animals to bath and relax. https://www.flickr.com/photos/talaakso/42458867331 https://www.flickr.com/photos/talaakso/28586346258 https://www.flickr.com/photos/talaakso/40650491870 #bestbirdshots #birdlovers #birdlover #bird #birds #lintu #lintukuva #lintukuvaus #backyard #takapiha #takapihalla #animallovers #animallover #wildanimal #wildanimals #finnishnature #naturephotography #nature #naturelovers #naturelover #hyvinkää #beautyofsuomi
