Don't know about the birds but I'm guessing wet feathers.
On the farm the horses are put out into different pastures. Each one has its own old bathtub where they can come over for a drink. Some critters that have found their way into the water but were unable to climb out include many many mice, some chipmunks, red and grey squirrels, gosh, I could go on.
Of course, after fishing out the dead critter, the water is changed.
It's that time of the year.
