Although birds tend to bathe naturally at ground level, they usually flock to other fresh water sources too. A hanging bird bath is the perfect choice for smaller spaces, or yards where ground predators (cats) tend to lurk.

Fresh water in a bird bath is hands down, one of the best ways to entice more species to your place. If that fresh water happens to be moving… well, it’s like a visual magnet for wild birds! Accessories like water wigglers, leaf misters, and bird bath fountains will absolutely increase the activity around any bath. Hummingbirds for example, are extremely fond of bird bath fountains and bubblers. They can be seen playing and bathing in them on a daily basis if they’re already feeding in your yard.

Leaf misters are adored by butterflies and many songbirds too, including bluebirds. The misters are versatile, and may be attached to a plant stake, or a branch, or even a deck or porch with an over-hanging bracket. This hanging bird bath features a solar power mister that’s built right in. The valve is adjustable, so that on windier days a stronger flow or fountain may be used, as opposed to the gentle mist.

Moving water really does attract more birds! This season consider adding some type of water feature to your yard, then sit back and see the difference while helping wild birds thrive.
