Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful experience. I love the sounds of nature! I agree with John Hayward , Thank you for not talking through the hold video or using loud music. It is perfect!
Agree it is all about the hummingbirds and mother nature display of grace and beauty . Besides there is a whole choir of singing birds making all kind of happy noises not too far from my window . Thanks for sharing .
Go vegan. That is the embodiment of the god you speak of. You can't love one animal and eat another you can't be an environmentalist and practice factory farming eggs come from twice abused animals. Milk does not come from anything but a raped cow giving up her baby's milk to humans that have been weaned for many years yet the same people would Blair at a child whose threes who still nursing people get glared at for nursing their one-year-old child yet they'll hand them a glass of milk from a cow that's been raped to become pregnant pregnant to produce milk and her child is taken from her immediately what she screams for 4 weeks to months until she gives birth again because within days she was raped again to keep producing milk within a few years she won't produce enough so she will be hung by her back legs with all of that gigantic body weight and cut open and become your ecoli Phil Hamburger because the older the cat all the more E coli in the gut she goes to slaughter after being held against her will in such a god-awful situation and don't think that they're all treated like Bessie the cow I don't want to hear Farm stories of how we grew up at Grandma's crap. I'm sorry for bringing this up here but how can you have so much regard for this and not see the big picture how in this day and age do people not know what a sentient being goes through. I'm coming up on over a half a century of being vegan. My family was not I wouldn't touch any of the above...flesh / eggs bodily fluids of any animal. I could smell it for what it was. Turns out I have an allergy to it but as a baby I knew I was already telling people at to what was on their plate. There is a video of a woman who produced in ASMR eating video and she's eating cats and a dog head and everybody is in a horrid Panic which of course I can't even look at it. But the same videos are out with people eating a chicken or a pig's head pigs are smarter than dogs in many ways and they're loving I know a family that has a full size pig that lives in their house like their dog would he ask to go outside she asks excuse me and goes potty the farthest place away in the yard they don't even go to the bathroom where they live. They have feelings they don't want to die Pigs die a god-awful death and gas Chambers in most countries and it's long and it's painful and you can hear them scream to the bricks way out far away. It's just what you've been trained to do from the day you are born. People will use its family heritage it's our custom it's our...... nothing that is that violent and that cruel is a family tradition to be held I don't want to compare it to human behavior and what we've done to other races as humans it goes on all the time and bigger in other countries than the US which is ironic during this day and age it's gone on forever people kill other people. I never intended on doing this here it just came out. I guess it was time
I've been in the avian field for 30yrs now. Having "hands on" experience with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey and Budgies to Macaws. And i have to say this is one of THE BEST bird baths i've seen. Perfect water depth for the little guys like the hummers who are attracted to the sound of running water as much as they are nectar. Fantastic job keep the videos coming. I'll be sure to show this to my colleagues.
tomtalker2000 I'm not an expert like you, but I also noticed that the depth of the water was perfect for these tiny birds. Just a few centimeters at the most. I love the set-up, as well. A little paradise for the little hummingbirds!
Well said..and I agree,that is a bird spa..it's wonderful that someone took the time to make that for those little ones..someone who makes something like that simply for an animal's enjoyment is a TRUE human being indeed :)
My sister in Oklahoma City spent weeks in her beautiful back yard this summer watching her hummingbirds frolick around the flowers she planted and the 3 hummer feeders she installed and happily maintains. Along with the fresh warm air and sunshine these precious birds, God's tiny angels, lifted her spirits daily and played a large part in her recuperating from Covid-19.
I have a strong connection to water---hearing, seeing, and being in it, instantly relaxes me. Hummingbirds are my fave. This was very satisfying to watch. ❤️
right, i love water, running water, but am terrified by deep water in lakes or the ocean, either because i fear some sea monster lurking in the depths i cannot see or that there will be a huge whirlpool that will suck me down :(
@@PoM-MoM You don't know much about birds, apparently. They are extremely social animals that like to hang together at every opportunity. It's how they find food, select mates, etc. Kind of the opposite of suburban white people, they go towards the places with lots of other beings rather than fleeing them.
All 3 seem to be taking advantage of something different: the spout, the waves, resting on the edge. All taking a cool drink of water. This vid is a keeper!
Probably my favorite video of all time for many reasons. I LOVE hummingbirds! I love it when somebody takes special time and care to look after the tiny creatures. I think this is a beautifully created way to give them a drink, bath, cool off, respite and let them frolic. I love the video because no music or talking! PERFECTION ❤❤❤
I'm also VERY surprised to see all these hummers bathing peacefully next to each other. As they are EXTREMELY territorial little birds and you often times will only see one feeding from a nectar feeder and all others driven off. So this is another interesting aspect of this video footage.
@@squishydevil On the whole Hummingbirds of whatever species are HIGHLY territorial and aggressive. Usually only preferring to feed alone especially at nectar feeders. Bathing perhaps may be a different issue for them which is why they are all congregating together. My guess is if they are all hot then territory doesn't really factor in at that point. It's just a matter of getting cool as quickly as possible.
I so enjoy this,what more can you possibly want in life???just look at these lovlies, I can sit so peaceful like and take in this most enjoyable sight. Thanks to the people that make this possible.
Wow. I took a screen snapshot so I can reproduce this in my backyard. Looks like a simple card table with a baking pan on top. A hose with some holes tapped into it. Add the decorative rocks, shells, grass etc... very smart and beautiful.
Such a beautiful graceful bird. This is the cutest bath time Ive ever seen. Bless you for making it. This proves they know how to relax and are not constantly moving 🙏🙏
Nicely done birdbath!! 😀😀. Very inviting. A delightful blend of rocks, greenery and shells. Pleasant to the eyes and soothing to the ears! I imagine and see myself sitting on the big rock with my feet in the cool water enjoying the peaceful surroundings on a sunny afternoon while the hummingbirds dance around me. The shallow pool and the gentle amount of water squirting from the pipe is perfect for these tiny birds.
I wish someone would put a package together for everything needed for one of these and sell them I sure would buy it. Just don’t want the hassle of trying to do it myself plus don’t have the time or patience. I would love to have one for the small birds since we only have a few hummingbirds in the summer. Love the video thanks for sharing.
Silence is golden. Thank you for a video that I didn’t have to mute. I’m going to copy your instructions and try to come up with something half as beautiful as yours. I love your use of color. When it comes to birds and other wildlife I try to stay away from metals and stains and paints, and try to go completely organic.
Oh my gosh, this is so adorable and inspiring!! It seems pretty easy to make!! -- Aquarium pump -- Pipe with holes in it -- A big cookie pan -- A bucket -- Natural elements (rocks, shells, grassy moss(?)) -- something to put the pan on above the bucket and pump. Run the hose up to the pan, and put some holes in it above the pan. Tilt the pan somehow so that the water runs down into the bucket again, or put a crimp in the edge above the bucket with a hammer. Or even make a small spout with a cut part of hose so that it comes out of the pan aimed down at the bucket. Place the bucket below the set-up. Put some rocks and stuff in there. It's probably best in partial shade and in a place where you can continuously add water when needed so you don't destroy your aquarium pump by running out of water.
DIY bird bath tutorial STEP 1: GATHER YOUR SUPPLIES. (CLICK BLUE WORDS TO SHOP FOR THE PRODUCTS.) Large Galvanized oil pan (Found at automotive stores. The one pictured is 36 x 25 and was purchased at AutoZone.) Submersible water pump Plastic tub Small outdoor table PVC pipe (The size of PVC pipe will be dependent upon the size of the fitting on your pump.) PVC pipe 90• elbow PVC pipe cap Wood shims Aquarium grass (optional) Tape measure Hacksaw (to cut PVC pipe) Drill and drill bits (This is the one I use and love.) STEP 2: DRILL HOLES IN TRAY AND SET ON TABLE. DIY birdbath tutorial Place the tray on a table so that the tray overhangs from the table by a few inches. Place the plastic tub of water underneath the tray overhang. Determine where you want the water to drain from the pan back into the tub. Using a 1/2 inch drill bit, drill one or two drainage holes in your pan. STEP 3: PLACE PUMP IN TUB AND MEASURE PVC PIPE. Set the pump in the tub and measure from the fitting on top of the pump to the top of the oil pan. This is the length that you will need to cut your first section of PVC pipe. STEP 4: PREPARE YOUR SECOND PVC PIPE. Measure the distance from the farthest edge of your pan to your first PVC pipe and cut a second piece of PVC pipe to this measurement. Using a 3/16 bit, drill single-file holes only on ONE SIDE of the pipe. Be careful that you do not drill all the way through the pipe or your water will not spray correctly. You want the water to spray out of the pipe and into the pan as pictured below. DIY birdbath tutorial STEP 5: USE A PVC PIPE 90 • ELBOW TO SECURE PIPES TOGETHER. STEP 6: CAP OFF THE PVC PIPE. Use a PVC pipe cap at the end of your pipe to secure the waterflow out of the drilled holes. Oil pan bird bath tutorial STEP 7: FILL WITH WATER AND PLUG IN. Using your wood shims, shimmy the end of the pan on the opposite side of the tub to allow the water to easily drain back into the tub. Fill the tub with water, plug in the pump, and enjoy!
Vaughn Stroud hello. I'm living way up north in calgary. But we get hummingbirds. Could you please send me the instructions materials etc. Tx a lot in advance.
oooo so mesmerising and lovely. i would love to see this slowed down. we could see how fast they think in their decision making process. thank you for helping these kind birdies
Love to watch hummingbirds! Thanx for sharing. I was in West Virginia about eight years ago and there must have been at least 100 (probably more) hummingbirds flying back and forth between two apple trees and two glass feeders with 5-6 flowers each for feeding. It was amazing to watch them swarming in the tress and flying to the feeders to eat. The home owner would refill the feeders everyday.
Thank you for not talking or playing music... Perfect.

I love all humans who take care of animals.. wounded, feeding and making this spa for them. God bless your 💓 heart ❣...
There should only be those types of humans here on earth 🌎

I don't know how I came to this video but apparently watching hummingbirds play in a homemade bird bath is pretty damn satisfying.

I've been dive bombed by these guys and watched through the window but never saw one actually sit still like that. Very cool.
How deep is the water? 1/2 inch? 1 inch? Thanks. I think this is just the best birdbath ever. Will most backyard birds use it?
There's another video here somewhere with many hummingbirds in a bath. It's cool too. Just search. I love birds!
That is not a bird bath. That is a bird spa, luxury model.
WELL PUT...!!! And trust me they appreciate every bit of it...:)
So true
😂 Well said

Agghhhh yes but what is behind the platinum door?
So Beautiful to watch God's Beautiful Little Blessings enjoying their bath♡♡
Awwww... thank you for letting the water & the birds tell the story. No music, no voices, just peaceful, calm bird adventures. Beautiful ❤️
They are so happy with the beautiful falling water.
Hummingbirds are real life fairies !

I bet the birds be like "hey i know this little cool spot we can go to and kick it if you aren't doing anything later on" 😂😎
Ah, you fuddy duddy.

How kind of the person who made this shallow bird bath for the hummingbirds. They look so happy!
I have never seen hummingbird birds doing this. It’s awesome. 😍
Follow Robbie ...just goggle her name here in RUclips......” Robbie hummingbird DIY”
This so peaceful without any intrusive music. I could watch this for hours.
Well apparently you nailed the ideal water depth for hummers, I had no idea they liked to sit and stand in the water. Thanks, thumbs up
A cookie sheet! Whodathunk?
All 3 seem to be taking advantage of something different: the spout, the waves, resting on the edge. All taking a cool drink of water. This vid is a keeper!
They ar
e so beautiful and always so full of energy. A joy to watch. They are a gift from God.
I can watch this for hours, it is so relaxing, like meditation. 🤗
Such Majestic beautiful birds God bless all the Lord's creations amen
Amen 🙏🏽
Amen to that
I love hummingbirds I have three and they are always flying around my head and eating in front of me
Such curious birds
Yes, now look at a vid of a pack of wild dogs eating an impala alive
@@jasonjr376 I saw a spider eat a humming bird on video this other day.
It’s called evolution
The most darling little creatures! Very lovely birdbath you made!
very cool! glad this wasn't a live stream or i'm afraid i'd watch is all day!
MrRdbrig same! Two years later and you’d still be here while I’m writing this
Wish it was a live stream.
Lovely background sound, lovely pool - you are so thoughtful and considerate to these lovely birds. Thank you.

THESE SWEET LITTLE 💙💓 BIRDIES HAVING FUN!!!!😁😁 SO CUTE!!!!😁😁😘
It one of the most beautiful thing in the whole world, watching, Humming-little-birds taking a bath.
That is just beautiful! My cat & I are really enjoying watching the hummingbird "playground". I repeat: beautiful!
Need 2 of these Heavens!! God bless your Caring for Nature💟💟💜💜💟💜💜💜💜💜💟💟
Why it's only 3 minutes long?))) I could watch them much longer, such relaxation. Thank you!
I wish I knew how to make a screensaver of this
The hummingbirds love their pool. Beautiful!
This video was outstanding! I love tiny hummingbirds and this captured them perfectly.
I LOVE this. I'm asking my husband to make it for me for my next birthday. Birds need all the help they can get!
This is so beautiful. Love the natural sound with no talking and no music. Very nice!
Amazing! The perfect spa...and just the right depth!
thats pretty 😊 could watch this forever 😻
You would die of dehydration watching birdies drinking water. How ironic.
Kudos to the person who made this beautiful bird bath for these gorgeous hummingbirds.

tomtalker2000 Perhaps water is their "Switzerland".
tomtalker2000 you can hear their territorial chirp, but also a "happier" version while they're getting along here.

They look like they're enjoying themselves.
Very nice!
They just look so thrilled!
I thought this was cool. I loved it. Watching these birds having a ball. This bird bath was so well made and loved the sea shells
Wow! So cute.
It's a hummingbird paradise.
You can see they love it sooo much!😍
These Hummingbirds are completely enchanting....xxxx
Wow-- this is any bird's bath paradise
Best hummingbird bath - simple and there are actually hummingbirds in it unlike most of the videos on YT
I wanna play in that bird bath too. It looks like a miniature water park :)
Awww...they are just lovin’ it!!!! Sweet angels! 👊🏻 to those who help take care of our little woodland critters!!! ❤️🇨🇦
🙀🙀🙀 omg how adorable! They look like they’re having so much fun!
How come they so cute..
The way they fly is so unique as if they are fairies.. Playing with the water, my goodness.. So adorable
It's absolutely beautiful well done it's fun to just sit here drinking my coffee watching these little guys
How beautytull and thank you for the ORIGINAL sounds and not music ❤️❤️❤️I love it. So relaxing 🌺

Aah, God gave us such a beautiful creation to enjoy and appreciate.
Wow. I took a screen snapshot so I can reproduce this in my backyard. Looks like a simple card table with a baking pan on top. A hose with some holes tapped into it. Add the decorative rocks, shells, grass etc... very smart and beautiful.
Such a beautiful graceful bird. This is the cutest bath time Ive ever seen. Bless you for making it. This proves they know how to relax and are not constantly moving 🙏🙏

This is a very kind idea . I like it , so refreshing for those little birds . They really like it , hanging out and enjoying the flowing water .
Hummingbird lands in the middle and looks around. "Daaaayum."
For me ...watching birds bathe is ...joyous....I reckon it must be good for the soul......awesome birdbath !! Cute little birdies !!
I can't stop watching.
Those little feather babies are thoroughly enjoying themselves thanks to you, luv from Scotland 💕
so relaxing to watch

Lovely and peaceful to watch
I love this so much! Perfect idea too! Can't wait until I make my own. So smart!
Oh my gosh, this is so adorable and inspiring!! It seems pretty easy to make!!
-- Aquarium pump
-- Pipe with holes in it
-- A big cookie pan
-- A bucket
-- Natural elements (rocks, shells, grassy moss(?))
-- something to put the pan on above the bucket and pump. Run the hose up to the pan, and put some holes in it above the pan. Tilt the pan somehow so that the water runs down into the bucket again, or put a crimp in the edge above the bucket with a hammer. Or even make a small spout with a cut part of hose so that it comes out of the pan aimed down at the bucket.
Place the bucket below the set-up. Put some rocks and stuff in there.
It's probably best in partial shade and in a place where you can continuously add water when needed so you don't destroy your aquarium pump by running out of water.
Thank you sharing, this is absolute bliss to watch! Will need to make something like this
This is just so absolutely glorious and beautiful.
Ohhh I would love to know how did you make it… I see that is recycling the water…
LOVE IT!!!
DIY bird bath tutorial
STEP 1: GATHER YOUR SUPPLIES. (CLICK BLUE WORDS TO SHOP FOR THE PRODUCTS.)
Large Galvanized oil pan (Found at automotive stores. The one pictured is 36 x 25 and was purchased at AutoZone.)
Submersible water pump
Plastic tub
Small outdoor table
PVC pipe (The size of PVC pipe will be dependent upon the size of the fitting on your pump.)
PVC pipe 90• elbow
PVC pipe cap
Wood shims
Aquarium grass (optional)
Tape measure
Hacksaw (to cut PVC pipe)
Drill and drill bits (This is the one I use and love.)
STEP 2: DRILL HOLES IN TRAY AND SET ON TABLE.
DIY birdbath tutorial
Place the tray on a table so that the tray overhangs from the table by a few inches. Place the plastic tub of water underneath the tray overhang. Determine where you want the water to drain from the pan back into the tub. Using a 1/2 inch drill bit, drill one or two drainage holes in your pan.
STEP 3: PLACE PUMP IN TUB AND MEASURE PVC PIPE.
Set the pump in the tub and measure from the fitting on top of the pump to the top of the oil pan. This is the length that you will need to cut your first section of PVC pipe.
STEP 4: PREPARE YOUR SECOND PVC PIPE.
Measure the distance from the farthest edge of your pan to your first PVC pipe and cut a second piece of PVC pipe to this measurement. Using a 3/16 bit, drill single-file holes only on ONE SIDE of the pipe. Be careful that you do not drill all the way through the pipe or your water will not spray correctly. You want the water to spray out of the pipe and into the pan as pictured below.
DIY birdbath tutorial
STEP 5: USE A PVC PIPE 90 • ELBOW TO SECURE PIPES TOGETHER.
STEP 6: CAP OFF THE PVC PIPE.
Use a PVC pipe cap at the end of your pipe to secure the waterflow out of the drilled holes.
Oil pan bird bath tutorial
STEP 7: FILL WITH WATER AND PLUG IN.
Using your wood shims, shimmy the end of the pan on the opposite side of the tub to allow the water to easily drain back into the tub. Fill the tub with water, plug in the pump, and enjoy!
Thanks!!
