Our birdbath is so popular right now with the robins, sparrows and chickadees, I've decided everyone with kids should have a birdbath in their yard, preferably one that can be seen from an often-used area of the house! We've been really enjoying sitting in the sun room and watching the birds, especially the big fat robins, splash around (but I'm not a patient photographer, when I went to take a picture, this little guy was the only one willing to pose).
Starting in early May the robins have been putting on a show including mating dances, male territorial wars, berry eating (Mountain Ash tree), worm pecking and gathering old leaves for making their nests. The whole family loves to watch them.
If you have a bird bath, keep it clean and top it up every day.
