Using a Spray Sprinkler to Attract Birds

Many of us feed birds to attract them and some may provide a bird bath.   But one of the best ways to attract hard to see birds is with a spray sprinkler. A spray sprinkler creates a mist of water that birds love.  It is important to locate the sprinkler next to tall vegetation so the birds can be in cover AND take a bath in the spray.

The spray sprinkler that I use is made by Gardena.  It is extremely durable and well made.  I've had mine for over 10 years and it is still working like it is new. The Gardena sprinkler I use is shown below.  Expect it to cover up to 1000 square feet  of area.  Don't expect it to produce water droplets as it produces a fine spray that birds LOVE.



Here is a "How To" video on using it along with the birds it attracted.
