This one did quite a show on the nest box :lol:
For quite few minutes I enjoyed watching stretches, scratches, flexes, preening and other funny poses.
Thanks for looking.

Morning calisthenics? I would stretch too if I slept in a house that were half the size of my body. Very comical and well shot! :)

Thank you. One of my favorite poses as well. There was stretching on the other leg as well, but not as good as this one :lol:
