Yeah but ! I can't tell from the photo if the bird is enjoying himself.I know i can put my YN in the water in the pool , but she dosn't enjoy it, yeah she wants to be with me but she'd rather be on my arm then in the water,I guess it's kind of cute. but i don't think that Jake would go swimming if given the choice.( and she's done it all )

OMG that's insane!!! Would love to see a video of this! 
Our Green Cheek has jumped into the kitchen sink while it was full. We panicked and pulled her out straight away.

WOW is right. My Hahns gets soaked in the bath and you can really see the effect on his flying. It is hard to get air and takes ALOT of effort to fly to his perch when he is that wet, so I am surprised that the parrot would choose to get that wet when it seems like a danger to them....but the photos are great!! and if he hated it I assume he would fly away as he looks like he has his wings intact!!
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

i had a feeling parrots could float like that, but you could never find a parrot willing to experiment! Actually, i think this is good in case he falls into a pool or sink, he could just swim
