So solar powered bird baths there. . . waterfall or a fountain or spray water. However, I could not find one that heats water with solar energy. What is surprising is that I literally read articles that reference solar heated bird bath, but then when I try to find them, do not exist!

I have a few bird houses to hang in my yard. My questions are: How far from bird feeders and bird baths should I hang the houses? Should I put any kind of bedding as a starter in the houses? I live in Michigan, so most of the birds that would nest in these houses are common finches and maybe other small birds. Thanks. Add any usefull tips if you can think of anything else.

Electric Bird Bath Heater

I have three cement bird baths around my house. The birds make substantial use of them. When rain doesn’t supply the water for them, I do. But someone told me mosquitoes are breeding in these things and I shouldn’t use them. Is this true?
