An inexpensive Bird Bath.

An inexpensive Bird Bath,
The following article appeared in
the Bulletin of the Illinois Audubon
Society
Several years ago | noticed an old
metal kitchen sink in the yard Of a
junk dealer At once the thought
came to me that there lay the making
of bird bath both useful and artistic.
| had the sink hauled home and
and placed in my back yard not too
close to a hedge of lilacs and snow
ball bushes, for | feared the ever
sneaking cat, yet close enough to Sc
cure this as suitable background
| had it placed so that pear tree
cast a partial shadow upon it during
the afternoon
fitted large cork in the drain
and then mounted the entire sink on
IA solid foundation of six bricks, set
three to a side. This lift the bottom
clear OF the ground and allowed
free drainage of the water in the bath
Next | collected goods and glacial
boulders selecting them from the size
of cantaloupe to that Of mans
head and these terraced up to the
sink entirely hiding everything but
the interior Next | secured some
black enamel and thoroughly surfaced
the interior to prevent rust and to
add to the general appearance. The
bottom Of the bath was next covered
with light coiored pebbles and a large
flat rock was placed over the cork
and drain, and here it was that the
birds best enjoyed themselves when
the water was turned in.
| secured an umbrella plant and
started it growing in one corner while
started small water hyacinth near
the middle. secured four slips of
various willows the common yellow,
the weeping, the common riverside
and the pussy willow. These | start
ed growing upon three sides Of the
bath. The common yellow willow was
an inch in diameter and had many
small branches which extended over
the water thus giving the birds a
good place to perch as they prune
themselves after their bath.
AS soon as | turned the water, the
success was immediate. Birds came
in numbers and because the en-.
vironment was SO natural, was more
than repaid for my efforts by the num-
