Birds need drinking water

At 16 degrees outside, this is what Christine Southwick's birdbath looked like.

Very concerned about the birds who relied on water in her yard, Christine bought a heating system and set it up.

This thirsty Black-capped chickadee was very happy to get a drink.

    I also bought a heater for my birdbath. Sadly I bought one with too much wattage - it not only keeps the water from freezing, it heats the water! Birds seem not to like hot tubs. I ended up leaving it in only long enough to thaw the water and then taking it out once bird bath was liquid and not ice.
