Love this birdbath but I ended up keeping it inside. It looks kinda quirky in my dining room and quirky is my style!  As far as keeping it outside as an actual bird bath/drinking fountain, the bowl part is not deep enough to put any water in. Also, the color was not as vibrant as I was hoping. I thought it would be more red but it is closer to maroon. Love the birds on and have gotten quite a few compliments on it .
