A bird bath is a wonderful addition to your garden as it will provide a place for the birds to bathe, cool off and drink during the hot summer months. It is also quite enchanting to watch the birds at play when they visit the bird bath.
To decide where to place the bird bath you will want to consider how much room you want to use for this purpose and whether you plan to be able to view the bath from a window in your home. The benefit of placing it in a shaded area is that it will be cooler in the summer months for the birds however it will require extra maintenance due to falling leaves and sap from the trees. Many homeowners choose to place their bird bath in an open area to keep maintenance at a minimum. Please keep in mind that you will need to fill and clean the bird bath on a regular basis as birds do not like to bathe or drink dirty water so please keep that in mind when choosing the distance of the bird bath to your residence.
There are many types of bird baths available. There are small bowls that will attach to your deck or porch, bowls that come with a garden stake to utilize limited space in your garden or lawn, bowls that are designed to hang from a tree branch or more substantial cast stone, concrete or resin pieces to compliment your garden theme. Many home owners purchase small fountains as birds love running water and the sound is soothing to the homeowner as well.
