Here is a video of a sparrow taking a bath. As you can see, it’s basically splashing water from the basin over your face – which as a human, it may be worth extending to splashing over parts of your body, but is basically just slang for a quick ‘freshen up’.
To clarify, to freshen up – that is, wipe off some sweat, rub dust off your body – kind of like a wash by hand without removing your clothes (although you might also change clothes separately in a cubicle, you wouldn’t do this by the basin in the bathroom).
