Transient Safari Art

In this hot weather, the kids (or at least some of them) like to cool off by hosing each other down in the garden (not quite as calm and sedate as that might sound...)

A development of this has been their discovery of the fact that by getting wet and then pressing various parts of their anatomy against the fence, they can make 'art'.
