Description

I noticed that my backyard birds seemed to enjoy drinking and bathing around a watering hole that developed in a dip in my lawn after a recent heavy rainfall, so now I deliberately refill the spot daily when I am also refilling the bird bath in my garden. It has really become quite a hotspot for a variety of birds, but the cardinals in particular seem to find the depth perfect for a good bath. Fortunately the location in the lawn puts the birds a little closer to the small window in my laundry room, now my go-to blind for better close-up photos of my birds!
