At Birdbath (September, 2011) [Backyard Birdbath watching Project - year round] 

Dove: "Thank heavens they've refilled the tub! I haven't washed my wingpits in weeks!"

Water - the most precious thing for everyone!

Everybody should do this in the backyard...

I love the immediate cut between the starlings splashing around and the goldfinches drinking so serenely!

One of my favorite things is to watch birds bathing. This is a busy bath !

The splash fight at 3:24 tho!! Had me dying over here. They are just like me and my friends in the pool.😂😂😂😂

Every birdie needs water .... 😊 The owls come to the bird bath at night so I keep it clean and full .

The liquid of life for everyone. Enjoyed this video. The doves have a very unique way of bathing.

Superb footage, excellent audio / visual quality, bravo! The tightly focused scene, the silence of NO MUSIC (yay!!), clarity of visuals and sound, all make excellent viewinig. The birds were so entertaining, they are natural drama queens. I really enjoyed this video. Very well done!

The mourning dove was the cutest, sunbathing and water bathing at the same time

Little sweet dove holding his wing up

Lmao that mourning dove looked like a sailboat!

This cured my depression.

God provides the best and most peaceful of entertainment. Who needs movies? We just need a stealth camera to capture the sounds, beauty, the life of nature. Thank you for sharing this with us. God bless you.🐦🐿

Watching this makes me want to get a bird bath on my deck...

You can never have enough of these cuties

Love the birds, especially the bluebirds. Love the squirrels. And I love the calico cat!

I was amazed to learn that some parent birds transport water to their babies via their belly feathers. Now, when I see birds visiting a birdbath, I wonder if this is what they are doing. Nature is just wonderful. Thank you for posting this clip, it’s so nice to see the different kinds of birds you have in both your country and location. Much appreciated. Regards, Eve 🐿 p.s My father had several bird baths, and he was always sure to fill them up as needed. As he got older he couldn’t walk around to do this anymore, so on the one he watched from the window and deck we set up a little tap for him. We ran a hose from the side faucet up to his deck railing, and added a tap lever. This then ran all the way to the big birdbath so he could refill it whenever he needed to. It was such a great idea and in the hot Australian bush land summers, became a popular stopping place for all sorts of wildlife.

Thank you for this beautiful film. It was so soothing and at times humorous! What splendid creatures, one and all.

It's interesting how they examine the water and taste it to make sure it's clean water. And I love how the younger birds look more cautious due to their size not to drown.

We need to protect our planet!! Thanks for the video!!!

The most relaxing thing I’ve watched in ages.

Aww yay the pigeon is doing that “I’m having a rain shower” thing. So cute

A busy oasis,very beautiful to behold,many thanks for the pleasure.🐦🐤🕊🐿🐈

That mourning dove was vibing! I love those guys, we get families of them in our backyard.

Makes you realise just how much they need a place like this. Every garden should have at least one bath . Very entertaining to watch.

It is so nice to see... a lot of animals. And wonderful birds! Thank you!

I love having the birds coming to my garden for a bath. Sparrows and Starlings

Love this, we have a bowl we put out as a bird bath and enjoy watching California Scrub Jays in it

Water An Source Of Life❤️Birds during Hot Summer Days not only Quench their Thirst but also Sprinkle the Goodness of Water & Cool their Core Temprature👌❤️Seeing them Take Cool Dips is A Joy to Behold❤️

Прекрасное зрелище,как птички купаются,очень люблю наблюдать за ними,прелесть,спасибо огромное.🦜💖🌝🦚💋👍👍👍.

If everybody does this in backyard and Front yard we all can see all kinds of beautiful Birds 🐦 all day, will give the peace to mind n Soul. . Dove is very beautiful. Need in winter 🥶 ❄️ warm water bath.

Love the birds too, my bird bath gets alot of birds seems they come as much for the water as the food, their such a joy.

Love this busy birth bath with full description of all participants

I really enjoyed this. It takes too long to see the animals sometimes, so lately, been loving these vids that show the animals and cut out the rest. I loved the credits at the end. Super cute!

Tak niewiele wysiłku,a korzyści i radości niewyobrażalnie dużo😀

I love the starlings having a 'wash off' absolutely beautiful video but do watch out for the cats....

How could anyone dislike this video? It's simply wonderful, thank you for posting 💗

So cute how some of the birds are timid and careful about their bathing, and some just get right in there and get to it! Was a joy to watch- thank you. :)

I could watch these birds all day 😍

Many kinds of birds take bath here.wonderful bath basin !

Birds bathing n drinking water very nice watching them

Mourning dove washing his armpit was great! Blue bird is so pretty!! 💙

What a beautiful sight to behold, some bathe and so e drink, not one fight, nothing, but respect for everyone's need.

What is the deal with the Doves raising their wings. Here in Texas we have Doves everywhere and they do the exact same thing. It's quite entertaining.

The easy n simplest way to invite all species of birds to your house. Very satisfying to watch. Thank you 4 the video. 🐦

Как мило! И интересно наблюдать, кто только не приходит!

GOD bless all animals 🙏❤

How beautiful your birds and the squirrels drinking waterand breathing them self in every corner it should be at bird bath oh God how beautiful ! I love it God bless you for this beautiful beautiful videos thank you!❤️🇵🇷😇

Crazy how bird baths used to be such a normal and common thing for everyone to have, so sweet

7:14 Dove stops bathing and climbs out of the birdbath when a starling flies up "Ex-CUSE me, I'm taking a BATH, do you MIND?"

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS. FORTUNATE FOLK TO HAVE THESE VISITORS. CAMILLE AUSTRALIA

thank you for this video, the nature is so nice

3:28 this entire footage is absolutely precious, but i especially love how some bird species are more competitive with their rivals and rather than a mutual sharing of the water bath, it's an opportunity for males to compete for dominance. love that you provided this for us to enjoy :)

Спасибо за чудесное видео 💕

Oh what a delight to find this video in the first place, and watching these little creatures enjoying themselves. I've just moved to a flat, and I had a similar birdbath at my house - just a bit deeper - and watching the squirrels and birds using it always gave me the deepest sense of pleasure.

beautiful video! lovely to see the sweeties so close up

4:35 Wow, beautiful bluebird. I’ve never seen them where I live.

Don’t forget to wash behind the ears and wipe your feets.

The squirrels look different from our N.E. squirrels.The ones here have white bellies and are chubbier.I wish we had those beautiful blue birds here.This is awesome!

That pigeon doing the aqua robotics 😂

So nice to see birds and animals. Those flowers seen better days..lol.

I try and look for smooth, white bird baths, because that makes it much easier to tell if the water is dirty. Dark colors and mosaics are the worst for seeing dirt. Birds are the only creatures that will see these designs and I doubt they care about the design inside the BB. The crevices around an interior design inside a bowl are also the most likely place for mold to begin growing and these crevices also make it much harder to clean the bowl. (If you don't care about dirty water it doesn't matter.) I also keep a tightly wound handle strainer hung-up near the bird bath and use that to clean very minute debris and birdcrap out of the birdbath between changes of the water. (I buy 3 or 4 at a time at the dollar store) I change the water at least once a day. Some species of birds like doves and sparrows will crap in the water on a regular basis. I try and remove it while it is still fresh and intact. I went to a Lowes to buy a birdbath recently and I was very surprised to see that most of them were designed very poorly in my opinion. But I guess a lot of people buying their first birdbaths are novices who are more impressed by aesthetics than the utility of the design(?) I never use my clay/pottery/cement bird baths in the winter. The constant pressure on the sides from freezing ice at night and thawing during daylight will cause these bird baths to disintegrate much sooner than they should. I'm only aware of this because it happened to a neighbor of mine. I use a heated, white, plastic bird birdbath in the winter but I don't fill it up too high because the water on the lip will freeze. I thought the heater had stopped working until realized I was filling it too high. I try and remember to turn it off and empty it at night to save energy but sometimes I forget to do this. But I live in the suburbs of Philadelphia and people in warmer climates probably don't have to worry about this. WRZ Delaware County, PA

those starlings know how to enjoy a bath - oh, a white-crowned sparrow - doves do that wing lift, I've seen it; I like the way their wings whistle when they take off. - a Scrub Jay, how beautiful!

Really nicely done! Great idea, you have a lot of cool visitors!

Thank you for this, I found this very interesting, watching all the birds have baths. Nature at its finest. Love it.

Looks like this is where the elite like to meet.❤️

Those birds were having a good time, it must have been a warm day. Sweet!

“Oh, just stopping by the Planet Fitness for a shower.”🤣

Forget the city view for now, this does it.... now i want one of these in my backyard and me in a hammock 😇😊

I know I'm getting one myself immediately!! 👌👌

This looks like such a peaceful place in the garden. I have something similar but am buying a small solar panel with a water sprouting ability to create an inexpensive little waterfall out back. Thanks for posting!

Lindo esse vídeo. Deus abençoe por cuidar dessas criaturinhas maravilhosas. Deus te recomendará com bençãos

Nice video the world needs more people like you. 👍thank you 😊

3:00 when you stay in the bath for too long and get poofy instead of raisiny.

Какие разные птички, и нравиться им плескаться,картинка прелесть

This is awesome! My cat watched too!

Very enjoyable and relaxing. Thanks.

Calming and well shot video! I do have two questions though: 1: Why do you have a rock in the bird bath? 2: Why does the dove stretch(?) one wing at a time?

How beautiful is this video !

How can someone thumbs down to the birdbath? It sounds like a devil people.

It is sheer joy watching birds, squirrels etc. quench their thirst, taking quick bath. My heartfelt appreciation to the one made this for these beautiful little fellows 🙂

7:17 that’s dirty bath water you’re drinking, sir

better than ASMR. Also I could watch the starlings and the doves all day, very entertaining

7:10 I know this dove did not just poop in this water and hop out 💀

My cat enjoyed this very much. She is an indoor cat so this is her only way to stalk the birds.

👍🏼🥰

you lifted up my weary lips in a smile, many thanks!

Общественная сауна и поилка))))

I need to get a bird bath. How relaxing to watch.

❤thank you for a beautiful moment💋❤️🦋

Such a relaxing video. Amazing that you have such wildlife near you. Water is life! Look at all the species that utilizes the birdbath. Notice how none of them leave a mess unlike humans? They appreciate your kindness.

Thank you for having a birdbath in your backyard! It really helps for wildbirds

Geweldig die prachtige vogels te zien badderen! En dan de fijne geluiden van spetterend water,. Het liefst zou ik in deze tuin zitten!

What an amazingly diverse bird population!

Wonderful! Thank you for such enjoyable footage, love this!

What a lovely pool. So cute.

Thank you for the beautiful video. In these crazy times, it's nice to watch something that is so calming. We should all relax for a few minutes a day.
