Dive into World Water Day with birdy reads, bird baths, and bird song.
Avian Flu Safety Notice: We recommend observing birds in yards and at birdfeeders at a safe distance and checking regularly whether your local, state, or federal wildlife agencies are recommending that wild bird feeders be taken down. If at least one of your local agencies indicates to take down feeders, we recommend removing them. In the meantime, we suggest following the recommendations of the CDC and other regional health authorities to follow general guidelines, like avoiding touching dead birds. | | | | |
On World Water Day (March 22), we reflect on the fact that, just like us, birds need clean and abundant water in rivers, lakes, streams, wetlands, and marshes throughout the country. The Colorado River is a critical resource that supplies drinking water to forty million Americans, supports five percent of the country's GDP, and is a large focus of our conservation work. In Pete McBride's Chasing Water, he captures the stark reality of our water crisis, but also the remarkable beauty and resilience of this ephemeral source of life. Find a copy near you | | | | |

Our bird baths offer both beauty and function: the elegant multi-colored tiles will reflect the light and play off the water to attract a variety of birds. The portable design lets you set up where birds will gather and observe them up close. The 16-inch diameter bowl sits atop a sturdy steel 22.8-inch-high decorative base, placing the basin at the perfect height for bathing birds.
