Weather's really getting hot, found this bunch of White-eyes taking turns bathing in the heat of day. They're enjoying the water so much that they didn't mind me getting close to get their photos.

Lowland White-Eyes. (Zosterops meyeni)

Just finished and drying off.

These two are waiting for their turn.

This mean looking guy's getting really impatient.

This one's cool, just waiting for his turn.
