That's the time Mr. Robin chooses to bathe in any one of the many birdbaths we have out for display. He has no modesty. It has inspired us to look beyond the watergarden at the total outdoor experience. Everyone can attract wild birds to the garden. The staples needed are water, food and shelter.
Birds enjoy shallow water.
That is why birdbaths are not deep. The water must be fresh and the bowl cleaned often. In the wild they bathe in gentle streams. The same stream can be recreated in your garden. Different wild bird species require very different accommodations.
