The Family that Bathes Together . . . .

Mum, Dad and Junior magpie taking a bath in the gutter the other day. They were in there for ages.

They look like they're having a lot of fun in there! Nice shot.

[Denise Wood]

So would that be rain you've had in Brisvegas?? great capture :)

[Poppo Livy]

@gilbertwood Actually no Denise. Someone up the street was letting some water out of their swimming pool. LOL
And don't pay any attention to the reported 19deg top in BrisVegas today. It was a stunning day and felt much warmer.

[sally agnew]

Haha, great capture Poppo :)

[Denise Wood]

@terryliv So nothing like the 9 degrees I had in Ballarat today :(

[ShirleyB]

Great capture, they are certainly enjoying the water.

[Barb Newcomb]

They are having so much fun! Great shot!

[Babs]

Fabulous shot. I love how Mr Maggie seems to be supervising.

[Janiskay]

What's not to love about bathing birds, nicely captured.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Fun capture!

[Kane Arlow]

Great capture, but I think you are just showing off that it's warm enough there to have a bath outside.

[Susan]

Fantastic!

[Peter]

Great capture and dof Terry, looks like they are having a great time:)

[Poppo Livy]

@onewing Interesting that you should say that Babs. At no time did I see Mum and Dad bathing at the same time. One was always just standing there. Keeping a look out for dangers perhaps?

[Shirley Banford]

LOL.

[Sheralee S]

Hehe, I saw the title before the photo and wondered what it was! Cute capture Poppo.

[Tony]

Gosh, even more naked birds having a bath 8-)

[Rachel]

One of them is keeping a watchful eye. Lovely shot :)

[Taffy]

@888rachel That's what I noticed too, Rachel. It looks like one is on guard while the others are playing.

[Poppo Livy]

@888rachel @taffy See my comment above to Babs

[Ron]

Love bath shots. Even magpies. Is it safe to bathe in swimming pool water?

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Looks like they really get into their bathing. Maybe they're trying to rinse off the pool-water smell.
