Offer Water to Help Birds Survive Winter
Water is very important to birds for drinking and bathing - even in winter. Clean feathers help birds stay warm and having access to a bird bath can be critical during colder weather. Research has shown that a chickadee with well-maintained feathers can sustain a 70°F (21°C) layer of insulation between the outside air and its skin.
Plus, adding a dependable water source to your yard is one of the easiest ways to greatly increase the variety of birds in your yard. That means more joy for you!
During freezing weather, use a heated bird bath to ensure that birds have a reliable, open source of water.
We offer a variety of bird baths and bird bath accessories that will attract more birds to your yard, and help the birds survive winter. Shop now!
