And here we see the spectacular TeaJay. Only one is known in existence. Watch as it bathes in its preferred liquid, a stark hot freshly poured cup of tea. Little does the human know, that the TeaJay has snuck into their beverage. Let’s see, as it performs its ritual of hot leaf juice absorption through its skin.

Exquisite. Oh, watch now. Let's come in for a closer look. The human has come back, only to be greeted with an exceptionally moist TeaJay. Notice, the bird demonstrates no sign of leaving its cup.

And now, we can see the true ferocity of the TeaJay. We get no movement at all. The TeaJay has now begun to challenge the human. Unwavering eye contact is its weapon of choice. Quiet, for we don’t want to break the TeaJay out of its powerful reverie.

The human appears to be quite a young man. He seems lost with himself currently. At this point within a showdown, the TeaJay's behaviour is entirely unpredictable. It presents it's next move solely after it's opponent demonstrates it's own.

Oh ho, now! Here, let us haste forward. Focus on the young man. It seems events have taken quite the turn! The lad has begun to pour more tea from the kettle straight over the TeaJay!

Marvelous! I've never seen such immediate synchronicity between any two species! It looks as the TeaJay has welcomed this action, and is now allowing it's guard to diminish as it indulges in it's shower!

My goodness! Astounding I say! The TeaJay appears to have reached its preferred level of moisture and has lifted itself out of the beverage. It is now performing the marking dance, as it shakes it's excess moisture upon the patio table

What makes the TeaJay superbly unique is it's ability to detect the scent of tea combined with it's own hormones. The secretion of a certain hormone that is extracted only within hot tea water is the only within existence which can leave a permanent lingering scent solely detectable by the TeaJay alone.

As it has demonstrated, the TeaJay has now deemed this specific patio table a measurably safe area to return in hopes of future tea bathing opportunities.

My word. The plumage of the TeaJay looks to have been altered by the tea! Will we ever know the original natural colouring of the alluring TeaJay? We can only hope that one day we will be blessed with such an opportunity.
