Bird Bath!

[rain_gryphon]

The birdbath is popular on a hot afternoon. The Sparrows act just like humans, splashing around and chattering excitedly as they crowd in together. Everyone has rather less boundary space than normal, and they all seem in a good mood, with no squabbling. I had to replace the water about every two hours.

There's a Lark flying past in front. I was watching everyone having fun in the bath, and didn't even notice him until afterward. He's headed for the tube feeder, I think, just out of sight to the right.

Aw poor things, I'll bet they're glad of the water alright in these temperatures.

Oh, they are, yeah. You can just tell.

The feeders are more popular too in hot weather. You can stop by and get fed without doing much work, even if the stuff I serve is kinda 'meh' compared to what they'd normally forage on their own.
