Ceramic bird bath designs
A ceramic bird bath is a low, glazed bowl that sits well in a flower bed or on a patio. Colors across the page include blue, green, pink and red, so a ceramic bowl can echo a planting scheme.
Glazed ceramic wipes clean easily, but it can crack in a hard freeze, so bring it indoors or empty it for winter. A shallow, low bowl is easy for small birds to reach.
Plastic bird bath styles in resin
A plastic bird bath in resin is light and easy to move. Some bird baths on this page are resin, and a taller stand lifts the bowl higher off the ground.
Resin is easy to rinse clean, so a quick scrub with a brush and plain water keeps the bowl fresh between full cleanings. Resin bird baths suit a patio or lawn where you want height without a heavy base to lift.
Bird baths in magnesium oxide
Some bird baths on this page are made from magnesium oxide, a mineral-based material. Widths across the page run 13.4 to 20 inches, so check the footprint against your space.
A compact bath is easy to see from a window, so you can enjoy the visitors. Set it on level ground or a flat paver so the water sits evenly in the bowl and does not tip to one side.
Choosing a spot, depth and care for a bird bath
Place a bird bath where birds can see danger coming, in partial shade, with shrubs or a tree a few feet away for cover. Keep it in a spot you can see from indoors.
Shallow water works best for most backyard birds, about one to two inches deep, so add a few flat stones if the bowl is deep. Change the water every day or two and scrub the bowl weekly.
