Definitely Try Moving Water in Your Bird Bath

Moving water in a bird bath is where it’s at!

Bird baths really are the best way to attract more birds. If you’re fairly new to the wonderful hobby of backyard birding, maybe a feeder or two graces your yard now. You know it’s great when a new bird visits, and the simple fun of watching their behavior.

By adding a bird bath, a great oasis has begun for your fathered friends. A fresh water source is a must for all bird species. Birds who may never stop at a feeder, or use a birdhouse will visit a bird bath.

In order for birds to bathe and wade comfortably, the optimal depth is about two inches. If the bath is deeper, try placing a large rock in the center for birds to perch.

Accessories like solar bath fountains, drippers, and water wigglers are a super way to liven up existing baths too. The sight and sound of moving water is a magnet for birds, they’ll flock to the bath! Moving water tends to stay cleaner for longer periods too. The other excellent advantage of moving water is that it thwarts mosquito population. Huh? It’s a known fact that mosquitoes can not lay eggs in moving water, so there’s no worries of standing water to act as breeding ground for the tiny pests.
