[obol] touch and go bird bathing

[Linda Fink]

Thanks to all who contributed touch and go bird bath sightings. All the 
species mentioned were flycatching types: Empidonax sp., Warbling Vireo, 
Western Kingbird, White-eyed Vireos, Couch's Kingbird, Scissor-tailed 
Flycatcher.

Perhaps birds that dart out to catch insects and dart back to their 
perches also dart out to dip in the water and back to their perches to 
bathe/preen.

I'd be interested in any other sightings of touch and go bird bathings, 
or any sightings of flycatchers bathing in the normal fashion. Thanks!
