A bit of a trivial question and I assume the answer
is yes but has anyone observed owls either drinking or bathing? I'd be
interested in information on what species and any particular conditions at the
time.
Following on from Nivens recent comments, this dry
season has been particularly good for raptors around Darwin with larger numbers
of Black Kites than last year (some afternoons you can see flocks of up to 50
circling on thermals from our back verandah). Unfortunately a spin off of all
these raptors is an increase in road kills with at least one hit bird seen
everyday on the roadside on the 45 km drive into Darwin.
