What do you do on a hot 30 degree Celsius day? Of course many go swimming and just so do the animals to cool off in the heat.
We fill the birdbath with fresh cold water three times a day and after each fill different "customers" arrive for a quick cool off!
This little Cape White Eye was the first after the lunchtime bath refill.
Let's have a look at him!
At first he tested the temperature of the water!
Then he moved himself into a diving space!
Plonk! He was in for about half a minute!
Jumped out with water splattering off his wings!
A very vigorous shake clawing onto a branch to prevent himself from falling out of the tree!
And then he sat and looked at me hoping for some applause 🤣
Finally, this was the first customer at the afternoon water change and she has just had babies. Thirsty work methinks!
I will show you more about the female squirrel tomorrow. She is known to us as "Squirry" and she had another batch of babies.
She is also the one that jumps around on us looking for nuts in our pockets. But more about her tomorrow!
We hope that you have enjoyed the quick swim by the little bird.
We leave you with this thought below!
