I'm going for a Victorian look in our Orchard/Apiary. It's a nice bird bath but I bought it for my bees. They can drink from the sides without risk of drowning. I also have something floating for them in the reservoir to cling to as well. Of course the Mountain Blue Birds, Yellow Finches and Hummingbirds love the birdbath as well. I will add sand to the base for stability but it held up nicely in a heavy wind the other day.  I've only owned the bench and birdbath a week and so far I'm very happy. We'll see how they hold up over time. Summers get to triple digits. Winters are bad but they'll either be moved inside for storage or covered with tarps. The items were delivered quickly, easy to assemble and nice looking. I've ordered a second bench and will take photos down the road.
