After the high heat, we hope that the mitigating rain will break the drought and provide plants and animals with a natural source of water.
Rainfall can fill the depths of the earth with water, so despite the heat, there is water for thirsty animals for a few days. Anyone who has become accustomed to birds with seeds in the fall and winter can continue his helping activity in the summer by giving water to thirsty birds.
The bird feeder loses its feeder during this period, but it can still become a drinker or bath. This is why when placing a drinker for birds, make sure it is not too deep for feathers. Moreover, if possible, gradually deepen. And in the middle, it's not only worth putting a stone to weigh the drinker, but the birds can stand there boldly.
The more natural a drinker is, the more often our little guests can show up. We choose a shady, half-shaded place as the place for our drinker, so it is more pleasant for the birds to drink and bathe, and the water stays longer.
Pay attention not only to the shadow, but also to the height. Choose a place where the cat cannot reach the flying guests. That is why it is good to install the drinker in the company of trees and shrubs, because they can escape in case of danger.
Just like during feeding, once we start watering the birds, do it continuously.
