Red-breasted Sapsucker

On 16 and 19 August 2020,  two young-looking Red-breasted Sapsuckers visited the tree next to the birdbath. Both birds looked down toward the water and both flew over towards the bath, hovered a few seconds, then returned to their original perches on the tree. After another minute or so, both birds flew away, not to be seen again. Curiously, Walters et al. (2020), in the newly published and encyclopedic Birds of the World, do not mention anything about Red-breasted Sapsuckers’ bathing.
