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.

Frequently asked questions

How do I clean a bird bath?
Empty the bowl, scrub it with a stiff brush and plain water, and rinse well. For algae or stains, use a mix of nine parts water to one part white vinegar, then rinse until no vinegar smell remains. Avoid soaps and harsh chemicals, and refill with fresh water.
How do I keep a bird bath clean?
Change the water every day or two, and rinse out droppings and debris as you see them. Scrub the bowl once a week with a brush and plain water. Setting the bath in partial shade slows algae growth and keeps the water cooler for birds.
How do I keep algae out of a bird bath?
Empty and scrub the bowl every week, and refill with fresh water. Place the bath in partial shade, since direct sun speeds algae growth. If algae builds up, scrub with a brush and a mix of nine parts water to one part white vinegar, then rinse well.
Where should I place a bird bath?
Choose a spot in partial shade with shrubs or a tree a few feet away, so birds have cover nearby. Keep the bath where you can see it from a window. Avoid putting it right beside a hiding place for cats, and keep it clear of overhanging branches that drop leaves.
How deep should a bird bath be?
Most backyard birds prefer water about one to two inches deep, with a gently sloping or textured bottom so they can grip. If your bowl is deeper, add a few flat stones to make shallow spots. A rough surface helps birds keep their footing.
How do I keep a bird bath from freezing?
Refresh the water with fresh water in the morning and break up any ice. Place the bath in a spot that gets winter sun. Never add antifreeze. If you choose a bird bath heater, use one made for bird baths and check that your bath material allows it.
How do I attract birds to a bird bath?
Keep the water clean and shallow, place the bath in partial shade near shrubs or trees, and put it where birds feel safe from predators. Changing the water every day or two helps. Moving water, such as a small drip, can also draw birds in.
