🔥 The heat is on… and staying hydrated isn’t just a challenge for us—it’s tough on birds too! 🐦💧 As temperatures rise, birds lose moisture while flying, feeding, and especially while caring for their young. That means access to clean, fresh water is critical—especially during nesting season! 💡 One of the easiest and most rewarding ways to support your backyard birds? Provide a reliable water source! ✅ A shallow birdbath (think puddle-like!) ✅ A small dish of water on a stand ✅ A drip hose or recirculating fountain ✅ Even a DIY setup with a bowl and a few stones! 🌿 Tips for bird-safe hydration: • Keep water sources clean and refill regularly 🧼 • Place in a shady, safe spot—away from prowling cats • Add nearby shrubs or perches for quick cover Watching birds splash, sip, and preen is not only adorable—it’s a reminder of how small actions can make a big difference. 💚 Have questions about setting up a bird-friendly water station? We’re happy to help! We also have a colorful collection of birdbaths in store for you to choose from.
