Hello all, Terry Pacey, re your message bird baths. I have installed bird
baths at all the homes I have lived in over the past 20years and have
kept records of the different methods of bathing of each species. I would
be grateful for any observations on this subject,
I need to know how the species enters the water, how long it remains in the
water and how wet the plumage
becomes. 
One of the peculiarities I found was that the White-throated Treecreeper is
the only species that always reverses into the water, this was the case at
both my last homes.
Thank you
Keith Brandwood
