Solar Powered Garden Fountains - Bird Bath © 2008

Combine two garden features in one using birdbath fountain. These need to be placed in full sun to operate, as the solar cell is usually mounted on the birdbath. Available in a variety of materials including resin, copper, stone and wrought iron. The moving water of a bird bath fountain tends to discourage mosquitoes from laying their eggs in them, so they don't attract the pests the way a standard bird bath does. The sound of splashing water from the fountain tends to attract birds to them.

Some of these fountains must be moved indoors during the winter, others have removable resevoirs and which can be removed and the fountain can stay out. Most also have filters on the water intake, but they should still be cleaned periodically to remove algea and debris which may accumulate.
