Bathing Bird and Backyard Geese



Sparrows seem to love birdbaths! Sometimes I see one splashing in our other one, which I can see from a window.

It's been dry here for several weeks, so I'm making an effort to keep water available for the birds. Drought is hard on our feathered friends! They don't need the basin to be full; I think they prefer shallow water.

A family of geese continues to visit our back yard. There are other geese and ducks on the community lake but this group strolls through my yard every day.

  6. I love that the geese drop by every day! I don't have a birdbath, but the sparrows certainly enjoy the puddles from our springtime rains.
