Baby Hawk Screams for Mom, Then Takes his Bath

This Juvenile Red Tail Hawk- Just fledged, he is in constant communication with his mother who you her yelling in the background. I think she tells him to o take his bath.. because that is what he flies off and does in a pot hole full of water.

This isn't the first. I have another video of a different hawk bathing in a small pond..

I've been watching Golden eagles nest and they mimic this behavior in the rain. I guess this is how they take baths. Probably not normally in little puddles like this but nonetheless interesting
