Clean Birds

We take a shower every day and wash with soap and shampoo We use a towel to get dry and we brush our teeth with a toothbrush and some toothpaste Animals have their own ways of staying clean Some birds take 'dust baths' They roll on the ground to take off the dirt and insects, and then they shake the dust off their bodies Most birds also use their beaks

to get dust and insects out of their feathers They use oil from their bodies to clean the feathers, too Birds have about 25.000 feathers, so it’s not an easy job! But why do they do it? Because it keeps their feathers strong, and the oil stops them from getting wet

Oxpeckers are birds that like to clean other animals They live in Tanzania, Africa, and they eat insects from the fur of giraffes This helps to keep giraffes healthy Sometimes, the oxpeckers clean the giraffes' ears! They take small pieces of food from between their teeth, too They also clean other animals like zebras, rhinos, and buffaloes
