    Lol, I use a garbage can lid, too! I use mosquito dunks/bits to keep the mosquitos from laying eggs in it, and I clean the lid every 3 days or so and replace the bits. It is great to watch the birds get good use out of it! You have gorgeous birds visiting! Thanks for posting! The rose breasted grosbeak is one we have here, but I rarely ever see!

      I had never seen a red breasted grosbeak before this year. Had been walking in the treebelt one day and just caught a glimpse. A few days later there he was just churning up the water in bird bath. On the statues, I cleaned out bath one day and didn't put statues back. Suddenly usage just about quit. Somehow it seems to give them reassurance to see at least one duck in the pond.

      So very true. We live in the country and I placed a large pedestal birdbath in the yard. Close by are two large trees and several bushes. The sunlight cuts through and lights the bath area. Well, the birds went nuts!
      So many different varieties come to bathe and play,. I noticed a lot of feathers floating and the water was nearly gone one afternoon, so I quickly refilled the bath. Lo and behold, as soon as I returned indoors, some fat crows came to take turns. They splashed most of the water out once more. Mystery solved...
      Now, it is spring and our windows are open. The birds are rewarding us with their magnificent song. Encircling the house, they give their praise.

    • @fluffypeanutcat
      @fluffypeanutcat  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank You. I do have a small crab tree a little closer and birds will usually land in it before coming to use bird bath. Birds certainly do scramble when predators approach. From a drought 2 years ago we are now flooded with open water behind the buildings in background. 2 weeks ago was watching ducks sitting close to the tree in the distance when all of a sudden ducks starting flying out of the water in a panic. I glanced up and bout 30 yards diagonally above me a Bald Eagle glided by.

      Thank you - I actually was a little suprised to find all these birds using the bath. Waiting for most of these species to return from their winter home in Central America. It does seem that a lot of colorful songbirds don't nest that far south and some may stick to the more dense woodlands.

    Awesome! I hope you have protection for your camera - might need to get some Rain X! :) I love your set up and the lengths you go to in order to make it a bird friendly environment. Mostly, thank you for making this wonderful video and sharing it with us!

    Do they prefer it a bit more shallow? Is that what the bricks are for?

    • @fluffypeanutcat
      @fluffypeanutcat  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is an improvised bath from rubbermaid garbage can lid and filled up It is a little deep for the smaller birds. Yes the bricks give them a platform to be able to stand and bathe.

    The birds in my garden in the UK are quite dull in comparison of colour but I do love to have them. We don't have enough trees near us.

    • @fluffypeanutcat
      @fluffypeanutcat  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      South Dakota where I live was mostly all grassland except along river bottoms. When it was farmed most nearly every farmer planted a tree belt. This attracted different song birds. The trees close to the bath are ones I planted. Those in the background planted early 50's. A bird to watch in my opinion more enjoyable thana $1,000 painting.

      Robins seem to be attracted to Bird Baths more than any other species. This first year (2017) that I put this out was a drought year and different species were abundant. The last 2 years not as much use.

    Wouldn't the water become uncomfortably hot with the bricks in the water?

    • @fluffypeanutcat
      @fluffypeanutcat  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The color is somewhat neutral but would absorb heat of water and also some sun heating. Once heated the bricks do tend to retain heat. Every morning and sometimes during the day I would dip out the warmer water and fill with cold water from hose.

    what is that medium sized yellow bird that looks like a gold finch on steroids with a long beak?

    • @fluffypeanutcat
      @fluffypeanutcat  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The yellow bird with the black bib? At 3:44 was indeed a strange bird for me to see first time. It is the imature male of an Orchard Oriole. These look nothing like what they grow into - 6:53 (the bronze bird in front). I think they keep this color and marking for a year.

    • @fluffypeanutcat
      @fluffypeanutcat  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks- I kind of did an emergency setuup thinking birds needed some water during our drought in 2017. First time setup & used what at hand, a black rubber maid garbage can lid. Put some white plastic sheeting on bottom to help reflect heat. Knowing it was too deep for most birds and they like to see a bottom, I put in the bricks. I have since put in some bigger flat stones to make it look more natural. I don't have near the number now but I think mainly because of very wet last 2 years.
