Birdbaths Increase the Variety of Birds You’ll Host in Your Backyard! on Wednesday, August 04, 2010

Any bath can tempt birds to come in for a drink. If you are looking to entice birds to bathe, small to medium sized birds prefer water 1" to 2" deep, while larger birds prefer water 4" to 5" deep. By having birdbaths of different shapes and sizes you can attract a greater variety of birds.

You might be surprised by some of the birdbath bathers you might host. 
We found a cute You Tube video of some Screech Owl babies learning to bathe in a backyard birdbath. 
Just click on the link below for some fun!  Count them . . .. there are five Screech Owls, but we think the first one to the bath is a parent.  Enjoy!
