Tips for Your Concrete Bird Baths

Too much water leads to an overfilled bird bath that is leaking over the edge.

Do Not Overfill Your Bird Bath

Birds will feel more comfortable using your bird bath when it is fairly shallow. You only need about 2-3 inches of water for them to be happy.

Change Water Regularly

If you are not getting any bird visitors, ask yourself when was the last time you changed the water. It is important to change the water regularly as fresh water will attract more birds.
