Home made bird bath.

So clever and inexpensive. Mike repurposed a junked metal bird bath into a repurposed one. The idea is also adapted from one my father made for us a few years ago.



Mike found this oldish metal bird bath and took the rusted bath part off. He made a dirt mound in the garden, chose a nice big rhubarb leaf and placed it upside down over the mound.






After mixing up some Quickcrete - a fast drying concrete - he carefully poured it over the leaf mound.



He slid on the birdbath's old mount into the concrete and let it dry. Wait at least an hour, or more, just to be certain it is completely cured.


He secured the final product onto the pedestal.
Ready for the birds!
