A bird bath attracts more species than a feeder alone. Garden birds reduce insect pests by up to 50%. The RSPB recommends 300mm+ wide, 25-100mm deep, with sloping sides. Stone bird baths keep water 3-5 degrees cooler than resin, last 30+ years, and give birds the grip they need. This guide covers placement, seasonal care, and what never to add in winter.
