Solar bird baths are a great alternative to standard electric bird baths or
the simple you-fill, standing water bird baths. They save electricity
which is good for the environment and your wallet and provide clean, running
water that attracts more birds. Here are some well-liked favorite bird baths and
fountains
among bird watchers:
Uses the sun's energy instead of electricity - Ecofriendly and saves money
No extension cords or outlets needed - not limited to placement
No wiring, no operating costs, simply install, add water and enjoy!
The only disadvantages of a solar vs. an electric powered bath or fountain is
that it requires direct sunlight (maybe those in Seattle should consider other
options!) and may not be as powerful, however it is less noisy, more peaceful
and for those reasons is preferred.
We like The Bird Bath Store
because they specialize in bird baths, have a huge in-stock inventory of
fountains to choose from, customer service
is top rate, they have a no-hassle return policy and many of their items include
free shipping if not very low priced shipping i.e, $4.99. Not bad considering
the weight and how hard it would to transport yourself if you were able to find
that perfect bird bath locally and in stock. Save some gas and your precious
time. Try them out!
