The oystercatcher's bath

[wellinghall]

Into the water ...



... splash about a bit ...


... duck down ...


... splash some more ...


... splash *lots* more ...


... a few bars of "Nessun Dorma" ...


... shake the water off ...


... preen the left wing ...


... preen the right wing ...


... a final tidy-up ...


... and re-join your mate.

They've got chicks on the nests as have the terns and lapwings and curlews (and bonxies- they're the ones to watch- they'll 'ave yer)!
