Birdbath Fillers

I love this bird bath.

A beautiful bird bath. I ordered the one with the cardinals. They are our state bird.

wanted to love these

i have a few birdbaths of varying heights and depths that are already popular with my feathered and furry yard visitors, but i really liked the idea of filler that was easier to keep clean than the natural rocks i've been using, and also thought it'd be nice to make a couple of the deeper baths that much more accessible to smaller birds. unfortunately, these filler balls have only functioned as bird repellent for the last two to three weeks that i've been trying them out before submitting my review. (admittedly it gave me pause before buying that none of the reviews included pictures of birds using baths containing the filler, which would have been reassuring.) i tried the filler in different baths that the birds were already comfortable using, and without exception they would immediately stop using any bath to which i added the fillers. i'd hoped that with time they'd get used to the filler balls and we'd be good to go, but here we are three weeks in and they're still avoiding them. it's disappointing; the filler balls do seem to stay quite effortlessly clean compared to rocks, so i would like to utilize them for the benefit of the birds, but it would seem i need to choose one or the other -- easier to clean birdbath filler, or birdbaths with actual birds in them. i wonder if it would help if the filler balls weren't white spheres -- maybe a more natural neutral rock-like color in a more irregular shape would help. as it is they resemble small golfballs, which could be off-putting to the birds, i don't know. all i know is that i need to remove the filler from any baths i want to be used rather than decorative. too bad! i hope others have better luck though these were a bust for me.

I love it. I put a solar fountain in and it just makes my evening after a long day at work.
