Looking out at the morning rain, I was not looking forward much to donning my waterproofs and walking the dog. Well what did I expect it is a bank Holiday, what did I expect!
It didn't worry the birds none though.
There was black birds and thrushes hopping around on yesterdays mown lawn and young wood pigeons preening themselves, with mum watching on.
I noticed the young pigeons even rolled onto their sides and raised one wing to
get some rain on the undersides. That kept me amused for a while.

Ah.. well sounds like the rains let up now and the dogs been very patient :-)

Our aviary birds hang on the the front of the cage when it rains to take a shower!

Our feathered Friends can be fascinating, can't they? I always like to see
The Christmas Turkey!
I've seen feral pigeons doing that too, chip. They look so comical. One good thing about the rain is it keeps the blasted cats away.
