These geese will walk right up to you all year round. They are not afraid of much and think everyone has food, of course. I have seen them for several years, and this is their video debut.

    You can also glue in or rubber grommet (slide adjustable) an oversize down-tube where the water has to reach a prescribed level to spill out, like a Lake Dam Spillway or Toilet Tank Overflow. This way you can also attach a return hose too.

    Hi garden girl, Your water feature is pretty neat. I bet those hummers think they are on a vacation at Disneyland. I have a fountain also and they mostly visit early morning shortly after sunrise for 1 to 2 hours. We're in So California where we have Annas Hummingbirds, Costas, and migratory Rufous. How about you ????

Thanks for the idea. it is Great!

    You did a great job - thank you for sharing your project with everyone! Ignore any petty criticism. The bottom line is you care enough for the Hummingbirds (and Nature) that you're willing to spend your time, money and skills to provide a bath for them. You ask nothing in return, but what joy you must feel seeing the hummingbirds preening in the water! Great job! !

    • @patElfpat

      If birds responded as quickly as some are expecting, we would not have many hummingbirds alive for us to see. They have to notice it and then study it long enough to check out anything that might be a danger to them. When you see a hummer bath in other videos, the setup was long enough ago the birds were used to it and checked it many, many times for danger. They do the same thing when someone decides to put up a feeder for hummers. Some people forget they were doing this for the birds and not for the humans. People think if the Little buzzers don’t rush over the first day to enjoy what humans created, the birds don’t like it and they stop filling the feeders. And some of the people don’t understand their criticism of others efforts just make them sound like the generation who wants everything right now. And done for them. If you don’t like the raisins, keep it to yourself. Do people tell you everything they would change about you?

      Summer A, I’m not the only person who thinks your sniping was obnoxious. “I only made an observation” really translates to “Because I have an opinion I will share it with everyone. I don’t care if I’m unfair and unpleasant.” You may not care if you are not pleasant but I can see other people don’t like your negative comments. Maybe you should become more sensitive.

      Carolle BUMP Get an oil drip pan and drill holes into it so the water falls back into the tub below it. in the tub; place a submersible pump, and enough clear plastic tubing to get up into the top rim of the oil drip pan. full the tub below with fresh water. Place cpvc at the end of the tubing, drill holes into the cpvc so the water sprays out of that. Decorate.
