I have a large container for a bird bath on the roof deck. The bigger birds like the Robins love it but the smaller Sparrows love this small metal saucer-like container. I have been filling it a couple of times during the day while we have been having hot weather. Sometimes there have been as many as 5 of them around the edge at a time. In this catch just 2 with one perched on the wing of one of the metal decorative birds. At the right you can see another bird on the edge of a planter waiting for a chance to get in.

What a lovely picture! It's lovely to watch the birds bathing.
That is a welcome sight.
That’s a tiny one, very suitable for a small space.
Birds do love having water available. Thanks for supplying these birdbaths for them.
The birds do appreciate the bird baths! Cute birdies!
Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
It's such fun to watch a bird bath...even more entertaining than a feeder!
Filling the bird bath in this hot weather has been a daily, and sometimes twice daily occurance. The birds hae really appreciated it though.
The birds hydration centre, how nice they can visit anytime.
The little sparrows queuing up for their turn at the saucer, each finding their moment to cool off in the summer heat
A very sweet scene. I wonder if the population of sparrows has reduced there as it seems to have here. Being non native, it doesn't matter, but I do like seeing them jumping around.
water is just as important as food for the birds!! enjoy your sunday!!
I´mm late again, RedPat, sorry! Sadly there was no use here to help animals with water. One of the coldest, rainiest summer I remember but yipeee you help!
How nice, one of these days I will have to do the same. Now searching for a nice birdbath.
A birdbath is always a guarentee of birds visiting. We have one that is bowl shaped with a large slanting rim around it, and if we just fill only the bowl part, all the sparrows love it.
