I pour water (And ice if if it is hot) at the end of the driveway for the cheep cheeps and it is so cool to see the variety of birds all drinking and bathing together. Thanks for helping the birds. : )
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!
Thanks - I was so suprised to have the Rosie come to the bath. I had seen my first one in the trees just a couple of weeks earlier. Mr. Rosie sure looks kind of punky in his wet head.
Lisa Spachuk question? I have a deep dish like this but no rocks or bricks in it, should I add some because it is too deep for birds to do little more than drink from edge?
That's a very nice simple birdbath. Love the idea of putting the stabilized bricks in the bottom. I put a bag of natural rocks from the dollar tree in our little homemade birdbath.
Thanks- I put this is up as an emergency source for water. We were in a severe drought. It is deeper than a standard birdbath and birds really do seem to like it.
incredible diversity of colours... you live in a paradise... this really is a simple and beautiful video...being from europe I never saw such birds in nature ...thanks
Wow, three different species of Oriole, northern (Baltimore), Bullock's, and orchard. That was really a sight to see. And that rose-breasted grosbeak made my heart skip a beat.
I knew we had the Baltimore when I put out bath the first time. Didn't know about the other Oriole species. I had seen the Rosie for the first ever in our tree belt about a week before. My heart skipped several times also when I saw using the bath.
0:15 American Goldfinch 0:34 American Robin 1:28 Baltimore Oriole 2:01 Orchard Oriole 2:13 Rose-breasted Grosbeak 2:29 House Sparrow I am just including the birds first appearance. There are many different birds, like the Orchard Oriole that come in, some at completely different ages that I don't account for.
That was frickin awesome, talk about up close and personal!!! My cat jumped up on my desk, touched the monitor, then started looking behind the monitor for the birds. Thank you so much, those birds are beautiful, so colorful and the video was relaxing!!
As beautiful as these birds are I can't help but notice the background, holy smokes, what scenery and privacy you have. I live in a development which I don't like, neighbors all around, never feel like there is privacy. I love your place and your birds, just beautiful!
Great video thanks! I love how you show anybody can set one up- use what's on hand:-) Wish everyone would put these up, maybe even consider feeding our fine feathered friends- they need all the help they can get these days!
Such beautiful birds. I especially love the all black with alittle white and red on the chest with a line of red going down. Never seen one like that. I put some statues of birds in my bath like you did and it brought more birds. I was happy to see that. It's a wonderful day!!!🦅😀🌻
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.
Wonderful video. You get an amazing variety of colourful birds. I live in urban Arizona and I don't see such a variety here. I must try installing a bird bath though, maybe that will attract more. I love the little perch so they can come down and survey the scene before they go to the bird bath.
Birds enjoy a bird bath for sure!! I have several all around my yard. They are usually always in action. For me, I find the ones I Place under a tree are the most popular for bathing. I also have concrete one on the ground (which mimics a puddle), and they love that one too
A great example of what made America great. Use a trash can cover, but that would be too deep for birds, so put in a few bricks for them to stand on. Country cleverness. Well done.
Thanks for sharing all that interesting footage. I live in the Cleveland, OH area near Lake Erie and don't see most of those birds so it was really enjoyable to see them in your video. We do have plenty of robins and there are time that I look out and know that the reason a whole bunch are in our yard is because of the bird bath. It's fun to watch them.
Sad to see most have migrated. Goldfinches still around though and Robins also. First year of having water out for birds because I felt they needed help with the drought. Was so surprised to see so much usage. It is fun to watch and I intend to keep public bath open next year.
We are sharing same thaughts. You have turn lid to bird's bath, I serve food in differ dishes & bowl in a big container's lid. I have small bird's bath, not big like yours. Thank you for sharing...your birds are sooo beautiful...
Thanks - It was kind of an emergency situation as was so dry 2 summers ago. Worked great and easy to keep clean so used it last summer again. I was so happy to get the variety.
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.
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.
Wonderful! This video and description answered all the questions I asked on another of your videos, thanks! The picture is really fantastic! Closer than one could actually get to the birds in person. Thank you so much for sharing! I live in Virginia, in a rural, but wooded, area, so my avian visitors are totally different, though no less exciting. I might have to add some bird baths in new locations and look into that camera you mentioned! Most of my sightings are with binoculars, looking into trees.
They are loving this water !! Yall have alot of Orioles up there in SD. I don't think they come down to Texas. I've never seen one down here. This was fun to watch! Thank you!!
Well Thanks so much! I've incorporated this clip into some others I have made and will give you a link to a sneak preliminary preview. I am supposed to show it at a nursing home, hope it doesn't put people to sleep. May need to shorten. th-cam.com/video/ThYn_NKd5Cw/w-d-xo.html
Thanks much. Last year I kind of got more interested in identification. So far at our farmstead have identified close to 50 kinds of songbirds. Some just staying for last winter others just migrating this spring. Here is a video which should identify all those using the bird-bath. th-cam.com/video/r6DZvJCtp_M/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the gr8 channel. .......Wow, so many different bird species. I don't see most of them in FL. Perhaps they don't like the humidity. We have lots of starlings, mockingbirds, and blue jays. Although there is a neighborhood near me where a number of wading birds (including storks), like to hang out in someone's yard, in front of a drainage ditch.
Your bath attracts such an array of beautiful birds! They all seem to enjoy the opportunity for a drink and a dunk at your place. Do you put out feeders in the winter? South Dakota in February can probably be challenging for birds that don't fly south.
Thanks-Yes I do put out 3 or 4 seed feeders. In addition a couple of suet feeders. Also like to smear peanut butter on tree bark and leave some peanuts scattered about. Definitely can be challenging for birds as well as people not flying South. th-cam.com/video/oHwWXy4eSYQ/w-d-xo.html
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.
Thank You! I have since made the improvised bird bath a little more presentable. Kind of fun to leave the camera out and see what I can capture. More species have been using the bath.
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.
Thank you for your hard work but please get those white things out of there? Is that old lead paint cracking? Great cameras. Love the bricks and birds do too.
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.
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!
Thank you very much. Yes from large RubberMaid cover which I laid on top of an older metal can. It was so dry here in early summer and I did this as kind of an emergency measure for a water source. Realizing that the size seemed perfect for this use I dressed it up by putting bark on outside of can and adding a few rocks in with the bricks. th-cam.com/video/r6DZvJCtp_M/w-d-xo.html
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.
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.
That is the coolest thing !! Mine haven't been getting but 8m going to add underwater bricks and c what happens I have rocks above the water but not working
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.
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.
Such a great video! I miss my bird feeders and bird bath so much…we moved to a place where we cannot have them😢 thank you for the lovely memories 💕🌸💕
Seeing birds taking a bath make me so happy
It does me also - just seing a bird is good.
I pour water (And ice if if it is hot) at the end of the driveway for the cheep cheeps and it is so cool to see the variety of birds all drinking and bathing together. Thanks for helping the birds. : )
You are welcome. They really do like to have a souce for water, especially when it gets hot.
Very nice moments beautiful birds

Now that is what I call a rustic bird bath. See folks, you don't need to spend a lot of money to make our feathered friends happy.
Right on. I did get a conventional one last fall and tried it this spring. No use they like the trash can lid better. vimeo.com/278933204
Everyone who has a backyard please really consider putting a bird bath. So much wildlife will benefit. Thank you 🙂

Nothing quite like watching the colorful sky chickens doing the splish splash.
It definitely adds a little joy in life
I love this! You are fortunate to have so many varieties of birds !
In Europe one does not get to see such colorful birds. Thanks a ton for sharing. 💖🥳🎄🎅🇨🇭.
That Grosbeak @ 2:13 is beautiful!
Wonderful video! So calming and cheerful! 🥰
Thanks so much. Seeing a bird in the bush is much better than having one in your hand.
So cool, different stone gives different dept of water, making it possible for birds of all sizes to come and enjoy a good bath🌼🌷🌹🌸💮🏵❤🌺❤👍

A very ingenious use of a trash can lid, that I'll have to try. I've been thinking of making a shallow water feature.
I love seeing all those different type birds they are beautiful.
Thanks! More types of birds are showing up. Didn't realize we had such a variety using our 2 acre tree belt.

Birds are so cool! Fun to watch😄
Gotta love the adorable little orchard oriole making a big splash and then unknowingly staring right into the camera
Great idea for the bird bath. Garbage pail top nd garbage pail bottom . Got to try it 👍👍👍👍
Clever bird bath construction. I'm going to copy it. 😁😁😁
Robins are always the craziest bathers at our bird baths.
I agree, they get the Splash Award.

For a moment I thought the three statues in the birdbath were actual birds and I was like "wtf are those"

Oriole heaven!
Wouldn't the water become uncomfortably hot with the bricks in the water?
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.
Do they prefer it a bit more shallow? Is that what the bricks are for?
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.

3:32 what is this Halloween themed bird?
BEAUTIFUL ! THANK Q!
I notice when birds are bathing they don’t chirp or sing
what is that medium sized yellow bird that looks like a gold finch on steroids with a long beak?
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.
