what's wrong with a metal bird bath?!?
We used to have a ceramic bird bath on the ground, which the birds used to love but have recently bought an iron bird bath on a stand and haven't seen any birds in it all...any ideas why???
thanks
What is the texture of the bird bath? If the bottom is slippery the birds will not use it. To fix this problem try putting a layer of small pebbles in the bottom.
Another thing may be placement. Is the birdbath too close to bushes or shrubs so that cats may be lurking in them? Try to place the bath about 6 feet from the shrubbery or brushes. This distance makes it hard for a cat to pounce, but close enough for the birds to dive into if threatened.
If you don't have shrubs try placing it about 10 feet away from a tree so the birds can survey the area for cats or other threats, but far enough away so cats can't pounce from the tree to the bath.
Hope this helps!
