Splash! ~ Just for Fun Week 3

Kim Johnson’s Just for Fun Week 3 challenge continues with the subject being anything man made.

This birdbath is in my backyard. It was made using bricks and the water is held by a planter tray. Seems to work good as I can bring the water hose to the birdbath, clean it, and fill it up with water. All done. But I have to do this every day except for the last few days. The rain has helped out. Easier than most bird baths. Water is so important to have year round if you want to have birds visit your yard. There was a bluebird in the water on this cold day. Funny you cannot see him for all of the water bubbles. He had a fun time in the pool. Nature has so much to offer. I try to take advantage when I can.

  1. they love to play in the water no matter HOW cold it is
    they don’t really care what is out there for them to play in
    as long as it’s something that they feel safe on or in, so
    you came up with a great thing for them & being it’s red
    will surely get their attention as well too.

  2. Lovely to have such friends in your backyard. Animals and birds need water. They know a kind person lives here.

  4. I heard a SpLaSh! I thought saw bubbles! Do I smell freshwater? Grin. Look out little bird…>-=^;>

  5. The whole place in your house is a miracle! If I put water that way, until the container is mossy no bird ever came. Hey! This is a great picture!!!

    • Oh my goodness, I love watching these birds and if I keep clean water out they come year round! I actually clean ice out of it during the winter.

  6. Such a cute photo! It’s amazing how a pile of bricks and a planter tray can be so full of life! I think this photo is exactly what this challenge is all about. Well done!

    • Thanks Ellie, I thought the same thing. While trying to find something for this challenge I thought about this man made birdbath! The birds have so much fun.
