I got the impression that it was only taking a drink.  Not much action if it was bathing.

Unless its doing 'fancy footwork', which I doubt, it could be either. the still and shallow water may make the effect noticeable as the bird is quite delicate about its actions, unlike say Crimson Rosellas, which go for a wash with gusto.

The ripples are interesting. They appear to be being generated far more rapidly than the bird's body is moving. Are the ripples caused by breaths in and out and/or the heart beat?
