    My birdbath is the most well visited thing in the neighborhood. It almost always has birds, cats, and squirrels, using it for bathing and drinking. I'm thinking of getting another one


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    We have a bird bath and we've had it for about 4 years. We don't fill it up in spring, autumn and winter as the rain usually does that for us but it's quite popular at the moment. Although, I have noticed that the birds tend to drink from the bird bath, and bath in puddles o__0

    Of course I do its very important for birds on hot summer days I think everyone should have one ponds are good too.

    Ok some people dont wanna put the water out in winter but actualy that is realy when we should be puting our bird baths out.In the winter water is frozen and the birds can't drink it till it melt's you may think they can just peck at it but they can't its too cold for there little beaks and its hard for them to swallow chunks of ice.

    What you can do is get some hot water and put it in the bird bath or buy one of those winter heated bird bathes so the water shall never freez and the birds shall be thanking you.I was suprised at how many birds came to drink Bluejays,Sparrows,Starlings,Pigeons,Doves ect... they all loved the water with extra seeds on the side lol.

    So keep that bird bath full ALL YEAR SPRING,SUMMER,FALL AND EVEN WINTER.

    We have a little ornamental pond with a waterfall - the birds use the upper level as a bird bath and are in it everyday! I love watching them. The neighbors cats like to come drink out of the pond.
