Yes, you can put ice cubes in bird bath! It can provide a refreshing and cooling treat for your feathered friends on a hot summer day. Just be sure to remove the ice before it melts and waterlogs the bird bath.
If you want to attract birds to your yard, one of the best things you can do is to provide them with a clean, fresh source of water. A bird bath is the perfect way to do this, but you may be wondering whether it's better to hang it or place it on a stand. There are pros and cons to both options. Hanging bird baths are often less expensive and take up less space, but they can be difficult to fill and clean. Bird baths on stands are easier to maintain, but they can be more expensive and take up more room.
There is no definitive answer to this question as different birds seem to enjoy different temperatures when it comes to taking a bath. Some birds seem to prefer cold water, while others seem to enjoy warmer water. So, it really depends on the bird.
There are a few things you can do to make your bird bath more attractive to birds. First, make sure the water is clean and fresh. Second, add some stones or other rough surfaces to the bottom of the bath so the birds can get a good grip. Third, place the bath in a spot where there are lots of trees or shrubs nearby so the birds feel safe and protected while bathing. Finally, don't forget to add a little bit of water each day to keep the bath fresh. By following these simple tips, you should have no problem attracting birds to your bath in

I got this for my kitties as a type of enrichment (and to feed the neighborhood birds.) They watch it all day long since I have it on a window just in front of their cat tree. Humans enjoy it as well because we get to witness a variety of birds visit. The moment we see a cardinal is the most exciting for us. A mourning dove will occasionally perch directly on top of it for a while before descending to eat. It's simple to put together, and after a few tries, we finally succeeded in getting it to adhere for a long time. Washing it is the only part I dislike. We use a seed mixture that contains some very tiny seeds; these seeds enter into the cracks and really cake onto the sidewalls. It does inspire frequent washing, so perhaps that's a good thing. Currently, the local birds finish all the food in around two days. Since we used to leave it up for at least a week before replenishing, I believe they have informed all of their pals where to go.

On my Los Angeles balcony on the second floor, I recently put up my first hanging bird feeder. Everything I read advocated setting up a water feature to aid in luring birds.I looked into hanging bird baths but was unable to discover any that I liked. They either had terrible durability reviews, were made of the wrong material, or were too flimsy. I choose to create my own. I bought a 14" diameter terra cotta plant saucer, a hanging ring, a 64" shepherd's hook, and voilà , a bird bath!Additionally, I discovered in my investigation that specialists advised utilizing a device to generate water flow. The Water Wiggler Agitator was my next stop as a result. I got it yesterday. There is no sound and only very slight water movement. Although I am aware that music attracts birds, not everything is possible.The item I received is not the same as the one shown on Amazon. It is enhanced. Redesigned metal legs provide more stability (see photos). The absence of an on/off switch is the sole reason I am not awarding five stars. I reasoned that if I could turn it off at night, I could extend battery life. The turning spindle must be physically removed in order to be removed. I'll probably carry it out. Additionally, you might think about spray painting the white dome a another color if you feel it to be too jarring in terms of appearance.

We may have trouble keeping the "scrats," as my three children refer to them, out of this situation because thus far, their acrobatic attempts to get to the seeds have made my boys laugh uncontrollably, and they enjoy suggesting various locations on the window to try to "outsmart" the little tree rats. (Since we have around 50 squirrels on an acre of our property, one of them will undoubtedly be attempting to get inside this thing all the time, but so far they've only thunked it quite hard, so it hasn't been knocked down.)We have a glass door on the back of the home that I could use in the hopes of attracting some birds.They appear to climb the wall, hold onto the window ledges, and steal the seeds, and they always shift it as well.It's worth the ten dollars to see the children laugh.

I've bought a lot of heaters and heated birdbaths; some have worked well, some haven't. This one is excellent!Even though it is described as being excessively huge in several reviews, my birds are not at all bothered by it. Although I placed a rock on it to keep it in place, I don't believe it actually requires it. I once had one that resembled a rock, but it wasn't very effective. When you needed it to work the most—on the iciest winter days and nights—it didn't. When I would wake up in the morning, the poor birds would be pecking at the frozen bath. This one not! To my great surprise, the water has actually been warm to the touch. I questioned why so many birds were bathing in one particular birdbath (I have three more). I found out why it was working so well: this substance seemed to warm the water. I recorded my birds playing in a video.PROS: Does a great job, even warming my birdbath's water.looks durable and well-made.Cons: So far, none!

This was just what I was looking for in a bird bath to mount on my balcony. Once installed, it is incredibly durable. It can be tightened by hand without the use of any tools. Concerning some of the remarks on whether or not it is leveled, I discovered, like others, that the water was slightly tilted to one side, but I merely bent the metal till the water was leveled, and presto! Issue is resolved. The fact that this bird bath replaced my previous one meant that the birds were already aware that it was there, and they flocked to it right away. Having said that, it can take a few days for birds to notice if you install a bird bath for the first time. Do not worry. Before you know it, you'll have a plethora of birds entertaining you every day. It will be a treat for your cats as well, if you have any. I hope this review is useful.

The birdbath arrived really fast and has lived up to expectations. A few of minor issues: When I tip the bath to empty and refill it, one of the four legs that I use to support it slides out of place. I can probably fix this with some tape, but I haven't done so yet. The other is that you would anticipate a slightly more substantial structure for roughly $50. It is incredibly light.Having said that, the birdbath has operated without a hitch since I attached the small connection to an outdoor extension chord linked into a garage outlet. The bath has kept the water from freezing despite numerous days here that were well below freezing. I've included a picture of a robin sipping a beverage amidst ice and snow. As I learned, Home Depot doesn't have a similar attachment in its stores here, therefore I suggest getting the water-tight chord connector along with this bath.

I adore this cutting-edge addition to my small birdbath. Even on a cloudy day, it has enough energy stored to function. I can't get replacement rubber disks for the spinner, or at least I can't find anywhere online that offers just the black rubber disks, which is why I only gave it four stars. After the spare disks that came with the device practically disintegrated after 4 months in the sun and being submerged in water, I ultimately had to purchase another Wiggler. I suppose I'll need to visit a hardware store to get something to thread onto the metal spinner to stir the water. Naturally, this summer I have a rodent or critters who decide to visit the bird bath at night because they are attracted to those "tasty" black rubber disks. It happened again, and I discover the Wiggler(s) on the deck without any metal spinners or disks. unable to locate or purchase a replacement metal spinning device. I can't blame the product for this issue, but since I won't buy a third Wiggler, I'll build up a Rube-Goldberg contraption that won't appeal to nighttime thieves.

On the bay window off the kitchen, I mounted this bird feeder. The birds had no trouble locating the feeder, and it was fascinating to watch them come and go as we sat down to dine. Sunflower seeds were utilized the first year I had this to draw cardinals. The feeder needed to be replenished pretty frequently, and that was the only problem I had. I used generic bird food from Home Depot for the second year that I owned the feeder. That manner, we attracted a wider variety of birds, but the feeder still needed to be refilled frequently. The birds devoured the food during our week-long absence because we were out of town. A mother bird also decided that the bird feeder would be a great place for her nest at this time. We initially thought it was fascinating to watch her construct the nest. She lay five eggs, and it was amazing to watch them hatch and give birth to baby birds. The issue is that baby birds create a massive mess. I had to remove bird droppings from the window after the youngsters left the nest and discard the feeder. Overall, though, it was a fantastic experience, and I'm happy that my little children and I were able to watch the babies hatch. The feeder is reasonably priced, so you can replenish the bird food supply. However, I don't believe I will wait until it is empty this time for a nest to form!
To get birds to come to your bird bath, you'll need to provide fresh water daily and keep the bath clean. Place the bath in a spot that's away from predators and has good visibility so the birds feel safe. You can also try adding a little bit of sugar to the water to attract them.
To keep a bird bath algae free, it is important to empty and clean it regularly. It is also helpful to add a little bit of bleach to the water.
A bird bath should be placed far enough away from the house so that birds feel safe and comfortable bathing in it. It is also important to place the bird bath in an area where it will get plenty of sun so that the water will stay warm.
Birds typically find bird baths within a few minutes after they are placed in the yard. However, it may take longer for some birds to discover the new bath.
A bird bath should have fresh water every day, and it should be changed more often if it’s in a hot, sunny spot or if there are a lot of birds using it.
A bird bath can be placed at any height that is comfortable for the birds that will use it. A low bird bath may be easiest for small birds to use, while a taller bird bath may be better for larger birds. Some bird baths have multiple tiers to accommodate different sizes of birds. Ultimately, it is up to the bird owner to decide what height works best for the birds that frequent their yard.
