Nodding Donkey

From the photographer: “What you see in the foreground is pumpjack (it is also known as nodding donkey, pumping unit, horsehead pump, rocking horse, beam pump, sucker rod pump, grasshopper pump, thirsty bird, jack pump according to Wikipedia) that I have passed by many times when I was driving in a car on a road nearby the pump.

I can tell you that this bird was really thirsty or let me put it this way - donkey was nodding its head all the time which means that the pump was working during the photo session :-). That’s why it is blurred.”
