INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If your tap water is very hot, you might be able to use this water right out of the tap. You can also heat water on the stove, or fill a glass container and heat it in the microwave.  The water should be hot to the touch but not quite boiling. Aim for a temperature somewhere between 120 and 180 degrees Fahrenheit (49 and 82 degrees Celsius). You can check the temperature with a kitchen thermometer. If you don't have a thermometer, hold your finger over the water to see how warm it feels. Don't touch the water, since it can burn you. Start by pouring in a small amount of hot water, and swirling it around the base of the jar. Next, fill the jar completely and let it sit inside for a full minute. Leave the lid off the jar.  The reason to start with only a small amount of water is to prevent the glass from cracking with hot water. Make sure that you're using a canning-quality jar, such as a Mason or Ball jar. These jars are intended to be used with very hot water. Set a timer for 1 minute (or 60 seconds) while you wait. This can be a good time to retrieve a metal strainer, if you don't already have it handy. Leave about 1 inch (2.5 cm) inside the jar. The goal is to have a very hot jar with hot water in the bottom.  If you pour out too much water, you can use hot tap water to replace the water at the base of the jar because the jar itself is already hot. If you heated the water to the boiling point, you can allow it to cool a little. However, you may want to use a hot pad to protect your hand when you pour out the water. The hot jar could burn your hand. Rest the strainer over the top of the jar so that the basket is held inside the jar.  Do not let the strainer come into contact with the water itself. The strainer should rest inside the warm air of the jar, but not in the hot water. Place at least three to four ice cubes inside the strainer, working quickly. Alternatively, you could put a few pieces of ice into the lid of the jar and set it atop the hot jar. If your strainer is too small to fit that many ice cubes, you could use crushed ice, instead. When cold air from the ice suddenly clashes with the warm air of the jar, rapid condensation should occur, causing fog to form inside the jar. If you have an aerosol spray, such as hairspray, a quick spray inside the jar will make the fog last longer.  For colorful fog, add a few drops of food coloring to your hot water. As the jar cools, the fog will diminish.

SUMMARY: Heat water until it's very hot, but not boiling. Fill a glass jar with the hot water. Pour out most of the water. Place a metal strainer over the jar. Fill the strainer with ice. Watch the fog form.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Bathing your bird regularly is just as important to its overall health as cleaning the cage. Choose a birdbath that is appropriately sized for your bird so that it will not have trouble getting in and out of the basin.  Some birdbaths are meant for use inside the cage, while some are meant for use outside the cage. Larger birds may benefit from external baths, but bath setup largely comes down to owner preference. If you have a bird that can swim, such as a duck, make sure the bath contains enough space and water for the bird to be able to dunk their head safely. Allow the bird to use the bath only with your supervision. Fill the bath with warm water, and allow the bird to splash around, getting itself wet and preening for several minutes before removing it from the bath. Once your bird has finished bathing, scratch against the feathers to imitate mutual preening. Be sure not to press the feathers down against the bird’s body, as birds do not enjoy this sensation. Your bird will need time enough to dry before the evening. Allowing a bird to bathe too close to bedtime could lead them to getting dangerously cold during the night. Make sure your bird has at least a few hours to dry fully, especially for large birds. If you live in a colder environment, make sure the room is well-heated while your bird is bathing as well as when it is drying off.

SUMMARY:
Choose a birdbath. Use warm water. Allow the bird to dry.
