David Hoffman, a YouTuber and photographer, took the most famous meme-worthy wet owl picture. It shows a wet bird with a tired, or grumpy, face. He shared the photo and its backstory on YouTube in a community post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear Subscribers, Members, and Patrons: It rained yesterday after more than three years of drought in Northern California. My wife and I decided that we would walk in the rain with our dog. It can be both miserable and wonderful, as everyone knows. We went to Elkhorn Slough, but there was nobody there. Silence. The rain was the only exception. We had our rain gear on. I removed my hat, and got wet just like the poor owl. It stopped, and suddenly, said the weathermen, and the water resources folks, there were these beautiful puffy white clouds. The birds began to sing. Then, out of nowhere, on what we thought was an abandoned railroad track, Amtrak trains began to move very slowly and were crowded with people. It was yelled at by the birds. Loud. The train vanished and was silenced again, except for some rain drops and birds singing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n

Do Owl Like To Bath?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An owl, like most non-aquatic birds takes a bath every once in a while to wash its feathers. The bird usually sits in shallow water at the edge of a stream or lake and then flaps its wings to splash water all over its body. Sometimes, the bird will immerse itself in deeper water. You can also take a dip in the water – fly at a low angle while splashing briefly in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a bath, the owl vigorously shakes off excess water and preens its feathers. Sometimes it also dries in the sun. Preening will change the arrangement of the barbs and barbules in the feathers. Preening will prevent feathers becoming brittle by using oil from the preen gland at the base. It is believed that the oil has fungicidal as well as bactericidal properties. External parasites such as lice and flies can be removed by bathing. If you want to read about Owl Without Feathers you can check our article Read <\/a>here.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
