This is my other birdbath, was so happy it was blue, I painted the duck to put in the middle
[/img] also just took this of another of my pink hibiscus, a little deeper pink and perfectly round:[img][/img]We have 3 doves a pair and a spare "lonesome dove" who meet every evening on our fence to bathe & drink,( they are large birds) so need to add water everyday. Doves mate for life and lonesome dove lost his/her mate, but this couple seem to have adopted him, they have been here several years.. we can get quite close to lonesome Dove, before he/she get's nervous.
