I have never seen a raptor bathe - I guess they do and enjoy it just like all the other species. This was out at the Thawa sandwash this morning and a long way down river from the car park.

It was very quiet out there - White-plumed, Yellow-faced and White-eared Honeyeaters, Striated and Yellow-rumped Thornbills, Weebills, SF Wrens, Little Pied Cormorant, Wedge-tailed eagles (3) in the far east distance. Red Wattle Birds, Rosellas and Lapwings as well as the normal bigger regulars.
Couldn't find any of the Brown Tree-creepers I saw out there a week or so ago.
