There are so many beautiful styles from which to choose, it can get confusing. Consider first if a hanging, pedestal, or deck-mount model is what you’re after as far as yard decor. Then don’t forget about cleaning and maintaining the birdbath, choose something that is easy to clean, fresh water is a must for wild birds in summer time.
The most important factor is depth. Many birdbaths are really too deep for wild birds to drink and bathe comfortably. No more than two inches of water is necessary. If your existing birdbath is too deep, consider placing a large rock in the center for birds to perch. Also, the Birdbath Raft will turn any container of water into a functional bird bath.
The newer birdbaths feature an uneven, or graduated bottom, the same concept as an inground swimming pool, where you walk in. This is a great idea and very accommodating for songbirds too.
