Another bird at the bird bath, although on 19 August 2020, several days after the birds in the previous few posts. This Pacific-slope Flycatcher is the second one I’ve seen bathing. The first was almost in the exact same location and nearly the same time of month as the first, about which I previously blogged. Both birds repeatedly dove at the birdbath, splashing into the water, and quickly flew to a nearby perch. You can see the result of these belly flops, evidenced by the flycatcher’s wet breast.
