Introduction
For the people who love birds or have a garden and like to keep poultry, they need to give them constant and fresh water all day long. This comes in handy when one has a bird solar bath that ensures that the water is heated and flowing easily.
Step 1
Making the bird solar bath can either be done by a professional or using the local artisans. It does not need any wiring or welding. Some people prefer to purchase the already made baths and install them in the garden. With local household materials, it is easy for one to get it made in a couple of minutes.
Step 2
The first step of building the bird solar bath is to have a bucket and drill two holes at the bottom. One later inserts a paper bag with three holes at the bottom for drainage and later fills it with sand and gravel.
Step 3
This will act as drainage exits for the water and ensure that it is fresh. Inside the bucket, one inserts a standpipe or straw for air circulation and fills the bucket with sand and gravel until it holds well. One needs to ensure that the size of the bucket is the ideal size of their preferred bird solar. If one has many birds, they need to have a bigger bucket to allow many of them to enjoy fresh water at once.
Step 4
Once the bird solar is filled with gravel and sand, one need to connect the solar batteries to the standpipe and make sure that the batteries are functioning well. One tilts the panels to an angel of forty-five degrees and is on the side of the bucket.
Step 5
The standpipe enables air to circulate through and drains out the excess water. When one sees bubbles, they are rest assured that the bird solar is working. They can later decorate it with flowers and seashells.
Tips
The bird solar is quite beneficial since one does not need to spend any cash to keep the water fresh. The solar is a renewable source of energy and one only need to invest in the panels and batteries. Excess power is stored in the batteries and when there is no solar, the stored energy is used. It is advisable not to place the bird solar outside when raining since this will damage the panels and batteries. People who love birds, this is a good way of attracting them since they have a place where they get fresh water.

Most of the bird solar baths are ideal for the farm setting but some of the landscape designers use them to decorate the houses for their clients. This is a good place for one to enjoy nature and the birds especially early in the morning. The panels ensure that the bird solar water is clean and fresh all the time. Stagnant water attracts mosquitoes, which are quite dangerous to the birds and causes fever. Creating a bird solar is easy and a great gift to the people who love birds and want them near their homes. Using a strong bucket ensures it durability.
