Tree Swallows love to hunt bugs around and over the marshes, but they also like to bath in them.
This Tree Swallow had just flown into the water like a missile, submerged, and is emerging to fly away while shaking off the water!

Some of the best movies ever made were by Rob Reiner. They made us laugh and think: The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men. And he was a force on screen as well in All in the Family and so many films.
