Add Moving Water to Your Bird Bath
A great way to attract more species of wild birds is to have a fresh water source. An even better attractor is moving water! Adding a fountain or dripper to your bird bath will greatly increase the number and species of feathered friend visitors. It’s a known fact that moving water is like a visual magnet to wild birds. There are lots of options available to create moving water in a birdbath. You can even make your own dripper from a simple plastic milk jug (with a tiny hole) hung above the bath.
Whether a dripper, bird bath fountain, water wiggler, or mister, birds will flock to a water source in action. The other great advantage is that mosquitos can not lay eggs in moving water. Thus reducing their population and the liklihood of spreading the west nile virus. Also, bird baths will stay cleaner longer when using some type of agitation or aeration in them.

Bird Baths that Blend with Nature
Sometimes subtle is just better…at least in the realm of wild bird accessories and landscapes. A soothing, more natural approach may be preferred. Instead of vibrant ceramic, or shiny copper bird baths, you may opt for something that actually looks like it’s part of the environment.
This birdbath fits the bill to a T! The realistic natural tree bark finish makes it seem like the actual landscape it adorns. Durable molded fiberglass makes for simple maintenace too, an important factor sometimes overlooked when purchasing a birdbath. Complete with an ivy-leafy copper dripper, this bird bath will attract even more feathered friends with its gentle moving water.
