Sunday morning is shower time. The birds love it - well, some do, others just tolerate it. Alex, Gideon and Rani love it. Classy, Spike and Emelio toerate it; and Peeper prefers her bath.
She will either bathe in my cupped hands or a shallow dish with water running into it - the colder, the better. I run the water as cold as I can tolerate! She really hates to be sprayed wtih the mister bottle. I think this is absolutely adorable.
Sometimes the birds decide they can't wait and take a bath in their water bowls. They can't get their entire body in the bowl, but that doesn't seem to matter, as long as they get their head and neck wet that seems to satisfy.
Here's a picture of Classy bathing to the sound of the vacume cleaner. I don't know why that gets them going, but it does. Sometimes they just fluff up and scream instead of diving into their water bowls like Rani is doing.
