I am thinking of putting a larger water ornament in my garden, something such as the bottom of a wooden barrel.
Probably around 1ft deep. I want it filled to near the top. With the odd plant, but designed for the birds.
What would make a nice base ideal for the birds? Would something like small gravel stones within the water and larger stones coming above be good?
I'm not sure gravel is the best, but don't know what would be better. Also the thought of some form of water movement to slow down it freezing during the winter. Do the birds prefer a still pool.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks
