Just as it began raining yesterday, these two pigeons seemed to be taking a shower. Or is some sort of bird semaphore? http://users.tpg.com.au/adsllj8m/P1100180.JPG

I saw a Crested Pigeon doing the same thing last week, in bright sunshine,
at Campbell shops.  I assumed it was sunning itself, so my guess is it's
related to grooming.
