Thrush Takes a Bath at Falmer Pond (Photo Special)

I think this sequence of a thrush taking a bath can really talk for itself. Taken at Falmer Pond, lunchtime today.

    Robin, thanks! It looked like a young one and was clearly having fun there.

    Cynthia, thanks. It helps that I often go to the same places so I know all the best spots to look for things. It was the first time I'd seen one of the thrushes go in the water though.

    One thing about birds – they never seem to worry about dipping a toe in cold water. They dive in straight away!

    Adele, they sure do. It looks like quite a young thrush and it was very enthusiastic about bathing. Must have been watching all the ducks :right:
