In the end I decided it was soaking wet. My thought is that it had either been very vigorous in bathing in the waterfall on the pond or it had fallen in. Looking at it I think it had, as I have often seen, been standing on the raised edge of the pond to drink and lost its balance. Either way it took a couple of days for it to dry out completely.
He doesn't want to be getting a soaking like that too often this weather. He'll freeze to death.

ReplyDeleteHello John :) Poor old Woody, what a mess! Definitely not good to be that wet in this weather. It didn't look to impressed to have been spotted by you in such a dishevelled state either :)
ReplyDeleteMost interesting Rook behaviour on the last post!
This poor bird perfectly illustrates why I have always thought of doves and pigeons as "little-headed birds". Adrian said it perfectly. ;-)

ReplyDeleteIt was very funny to look at Adrian.
