To help feathered friends over winter, it's good to take precautions to stop a bird bath from freezing. Like us, birds need water daily to survive, and over cold periods fresh drinking water can be harder to come by.
You might think it's not worth the effort to keep your bird bath frost-free, and wait for it to thaw naturally as the weather warms up. However, during winter the daylight hours are fewer, meaning birds have a tougher time finding food and water. Stopping it from freezing is therefore essential bird bath winter care.
