Water! Water! Everywhere!

The little birdbath is out and filled up . I noticed that two female cow birds were taking advantage of it . The males did not seem to be brave enough to venture into the water. Hmmm…..

Head down into the water and splash splash splash with her wings. Then up and a quick wing flap .
That was so nice she does it again! Down and water everywhere.

I think these two female cow birds really enjoyed their baths. I submit this for Jez’ Water Water Everywhere photo challenge. The birds were too busy in the water for there to be any reflections Jez!

    Our sparrows prefer a dust bath when water is available…to each his/her own.

      We’ve had a drought here and plenty of dust so perhaps the birds want to have a water bath. Today the dry spell has broken and we have much needed rain. Thanks for sharing your sparrows’ news.

        Cute photos, Anne. We can learn a lot by watching the carefree behavior of animals. 😁 You are welcome.

      Maybe the males think they are just too cool to have a bath. But the females and other little birds really seem to enjoy it. Thank you for commenting!

        Mothers are often correct. We just don’t realize it until we grow up.
