Here is another Rufous Treepie tale for this week’s Foto Friday (There will be one more next week). The baby treepie is the same one who found the hammer last week.
Mama bird finds water and plunges right in
Baby bird stares open-mouthed
a trifle alarmed
and also amazed at Mama’s actions.
No, says baby to Mama’s suggestion to join her
and flies away to perch on the Lantana.
An old plate and some water was all it took for this action to be initiated. I am waiting for word to spread and more birds to join in.

They will join soon! Lovely pictures and captions!
The no. of sparrows have increased at home, at last! I see two pairs now!
Hurrah, Sandhya! 🙂 🙂 🙂
The Rufous Treepie found a hammer
It’s mother found some well-kept water
She had a wash
He said, “Bosh!”
To the bath he proclaimed a disclaimer!
