21st May 2008 : A Jolly Good Bath!

I thought this sweet little Yellow-vented Bulbul deserved an entry all to itself, for it was so comical and cute splashing around in the birdbath yesterday. It would hop into the water, frantically splash around for a couple of seconds, hop out absolutely soaking wet, fluff itself up on a sunny rock for a few seconds, then dash back into the water again - on and on for about 15 minutes...what a clean bird it was by the end of it!

Happy Travels, Imogen (you must be getting on the plane very soon!) The weather has perked up here and the sun is shining, so hopefully you will have perfect weather and a great safari....
