Bird baths will attract more songbirds to your yard! Whether a hanging birdbath, pedestal, or deck-mount bird bath, a fresh water source is an oasis for many birds who may not use birdhouses or feeders.

Bird baths are a wonderful way to attract more songbirds who may not frequent birdhouses or bird feeders.  And with moving water you will attract even more feathered friends! 

When birds catch a glimpse of the gentle rippling effects of moving water in a birdbath, they are sure to stick around!  A great selection of birdbath misters and drippers are available to accompany your bird bath. These offer a great way to view wild birds, while providing bathing spots and fun time for many species.  Hummingbirds and warblers love the misters, and once they find one, will revisit year after year.

Another great reason to add a dripper or water wiggler to your birdbath, is that mosquitos can not lay eggs in moving water!  This helps to prevent  spreading of the west nile virus by reducing mosquito populations.

Bird baths are available in a myriad of designs. Poly resin—which is made to look like stone without the weight, is a good choice for durability and easy cleaning.  Ceramic, glass and stoneware, which have the ability to hold a birdbath heater during cold winter months when freezing temperatures render most bird baths useless.  Ceramic and stoneware birdbaths make excellent, and long lasting gifts for any nature lover on your list too.

Having a fresh water source in your yard is a life saving vehicle for many wild birds.  At thebirdhousechick.com we offer an unusual selection of bird baths with quality in mind.  Be sure to check out thel bath accessories and wild bird feedres for providing wildlife habitat and attracting more songbirds to your yard.
