Create a Bird Bath from Any Pot or Container

Food, Water, Shelter

These are the basics of any bird-friendly habitat. It needn’t be anything fancy either.

•Food may be provided by native plants and trees that bear fruit and berries as well as bird feeders.

•Shelter is much more than bird houses too. Mature trees, brush and thickets provide shelter for many wild birds, even dead trees will provide nest sites for woodpeckers and other cavity dwelling birds.

•Water is a major factor in providing wildlife-friendly habitat. A fresh water source will attract more birds than bird houses or bird feeders alone. Water is critical for birds’ bathing and preening to keep feathers clean.

A fancy bird bath is not necessary, as a stream or creek can provide this valuable resource. Bird Baths that are hanging are always nice in the yard, but you can create a simple bath from any pot or container on hand. The BirdBath Raft allows you to use any depth of water, while keeping a safe and functional bird bath. Attract more birds with a fresh water source!
