Water is a vital element for the survival of our feathered friends

Bathing plays an important role in feather maintenance and a source of drinking water is also important for small garden birds, whose diet consists mainly of seeds, as it is not naturally present in their diet. Therefore it is hugely beneficial to equip your garden with a bird bath or pond.


A good bird bath needs to have sloping sides and a rough surface allowing a safe grip. As birds are at their most vulnerable to predators when bathing, situate your bird bath at least two metres (six feet) from cover to help them avoid attack.


Your bird bath should be cleaned regularly with a diluted, non-toxic disinfectant and rinsed thoroughly to remove algae and droppings.


In cold weather many wild birds will be feeding on fairly dry foods such as seeds or peanuts so they need regular access to a clean and reliable source of water to drink. Surprisingly it is still also very important that they bathe regularly as clean dry plumage provides much better insulation against the cold.


During the winter bird baths should be filled with tepid water in the morning and, if possible, this should be refreshed once or twice during the day. Refilling the next day will be much easier if the bird bath is emptied after dark before it has a chance to freeze solid. On no account should anti-freeze, screen wash, salt or any other chemical additive be used.
