This may be cheating, as it's not a bird bathing, but it's a Flicker drying off after bathing.

Does a dirt bath count? Not really sure why this female House Sparrow was doing this, but it was acting like there was water!

Birds like to take dirt baths. I've seen them "dusting", as we called it, many times. I've heard it helps get rid on the Mites on them.
