Description

Little dip, rest for a bit, little dip, rest, repeat. I caught a Pale-headed Rosella just after it landed on the birdbath. A little later one was on the ground, a Potter wasp had a drink then the Rosella used the partly-submerged stick for a bit of a splash-around. A couple of times it put a toe in the water so maybe it wasn't “just right”. I think this is a single male but I'm not positive. It's a low tide at the birdbath which is a bit of a shame – he might have had a better dip if there was more water over the stick. Cheers folks!
