At a practical level, bird baths are a low maintenance garden feature that naturally refill with rainwater. But they can be as decorative as they are functional and the right bird bath will enhance the rest of your garden whilst becoming an important center for visiting wildlife. 


We’ve carefully selected some of the best bird baths on the market in contemporary and classic designs to help you find the right one for your garden.  Whether you’re looking for something modern, simple or a statement piece, encourage wildlife into your garden with one of our favorite bird baths below.


Rainbow Sandstone Bird Bath

                                      

Whether you have a courtyard, large set of porchway stairs, patio or a full garden, this rainbow  bird bath designed by Foras is a warmly coloured and decorative way to invite birds into your outdoor space.

Rainbow sandstone has natural striations that differ in shade, design and colour.  Carved from a single block of sandstone, the effect is a unique centerpiece that’s seamless and smooth. In addition, the bowl is relatively lightweight and can therefore be moved easily around.

Stake bird bath

                                                   


A stake-in-the-ground bird bath is a classic design that’s simple to build, easy to relocate and lightweight to carry. The nature of the long-stemmed rods also makes them an unobtrusive choice of bird bath.


Stone Edwardian Bird Bath


                                                   
The Edwardian birdbath is a lovely handcrafted small elegant classically designed cast stone piece. Featuring a bulbous classic pedestal with a square base and petit round but deep bowl to provide a beautiful appearance . 
This is quite a low bird bath making it a good option for watching from your favorite seat or sofa. The bowl itself has a dramatic feel in its design. If you’re looking for something to add grandeur to your space, this is one of the best bird baths to consider.

Hanging Bird Bath

                                                      

A hanging bird bath has lots of versatility.  You are able to hook this one over the branch of a tree or perhaps find a suitable spot on your porch where you can easily watch the birds that visit it.

If you’re looking for a sculptural bird bath, this natural-style basin made from granite gives the understated feel of one that’s been made by nature itself.  

The bowl is carved into the rock which has a naturally dark shade and is robust in construction. It also sits low to the ground unlike many bird baths, which adds to its natural style. 45cm in length, this is one would slip seamlessly into a garden and give centre stage to the birds that visit it.
