[COLOR=Blue]Birds I've had also preferred cold water to bathe in. As for outside, if you are comfortable, then they should be too as long as there is no wind or constant breeze. It doesn't need to be 80 to take them out, 60's is ok. But I'd have him on a secluded porch or something to be sure of no draftiness. Drafts run a birds system down very fast and illness can occur quickly.
