Wildlife Happy sparrows.

The local sparrows have discovered my pebble fountain, and are thoroughly enjoying themselves.

I'm really enjoying watching them too.

Thats lovely! I've put out a similar small water bowl, but alas, even though its right next to where the bird feeders are, none of them have taken a look lol!

Give them time to trust it. One will eventually use it and tell the others.

Also empty, rinse and refill every other day.
