Posted February 27, 200817 yr Hi all, We are having a bit of a heatwave here at the moment.. it hit 40 degrees celcius (104 degrees fahrenheit) where I am this afternoon. Definitely the right time for a cooling shower! I filled a 1 litre spray bottle and headed out to the aviary and started spraying. A certain few took up the front row seats in the shower and didn't move, except to turm around or get water under the wings. 1 litre later they were definitely wet! What is cuter than a wet budgie (budgie jelly beans excepted). Here are a few wet budgie pics.. the last photo is just a shot from the aviary with slightly less wet birds. Feathers.
February 27, 200817 yr Feathers you must enter one of (or two or three (Laughing out loud) just kidding) in the Budgie of the Month contest they are excellent. I love your photos . We have about 20 inches of snow how is that for a heat wave :
February 27, 200817 yr Author Hi, Even your wet budgies look great I was looking through them after I posted and I spotted two poor wee pet type budgies in amoungst them. They are just as loveable small though! We have about 20 inches of snow how is that for a heat wave throw some this way Elly... I'll go out back ready to catch, okay.... 5 minutes from now.... synchronise watches... go! Feathers.

February 27, 200817 yr SPLISH! SPLASH! I WAS TAKIN A BATH as the song goes & it wasn’t even Saturday night…I bet they were happy.
February 27, 200817 yr haha cute photo's!!! i love your yellow bird holding the cable tie!!! haha cute picture!
February 28, 200817 yr Author Hey all, thanks for the replies... another scorcher, hotter than the last, so more spraying yesterday.. I resisted the urge to forever capture them at their most embarrassing moment with more photos. They were very happy about that. I love your rope perches.... where do you get them? Hey Liv, you'll find them at your local $2.00 or discount variety store.... they are called skipping ropes, some are even dog toys! You can find actual rope perches made for birds at bird shops... I can even recommend a cheap internet bird shop that has them really cheap. But you can't beat a $2.00 skipping rope, or dog tug of war toy attached with a cable tie (zippy tie). Feathers.
