Help the birds!!!!

No - I'm not trying to outdo myself on these updates......just got to watching the birds (mostly robins today) at our bird bath and I got to thinking ---- there really aren't any mud holes with water in them.  Most of the ponds have dried up.   So where DO birds get a drink.  Well a good number are coming to my little home made bird bath.  Most of them aren't taking a bath --- just getting a good drink of water.    So ---- if you are in the drought area........it might just help the little creatures (God's creatures) if you set out a shallow (!!!) pan of water for them to drink out of.  Make sure it's shallow - or you'll be drowning them  :(

Thanks!

p.s.  I had two blue jays at the bird bath this morning.   Haven't seen a blue jay for a LONG time -- years even!  I know they can be a nasty mean bird -- but I have a soft spot in my heart for them.   I always heard their call when we went to Beads Dam......good memories.
