Wildlife World Nature Oasis Bird Bath — Sustainable Outdoor
Wildlife World Nature Oasis Bird Bath — Sustainable Outdoor Design for Birds, Bees, Butterflies & Small Mammals
Bird Education and Information
A bird bath is an educational and interesting addition to any birder or gardener’s outdoor space. A ground bath, like the Wildlife World Oasis Bird Bath, is a practical and easy basin-style bath that can be placed directly on the ground. With proper care, you can be amazed at the variety of feathered friends this fresh water source will attract!
Birds need water for drinking and bathing. While many people put out food for birds fewer provide a regular supply of clean water. Many seed-eating birds have a dry diet and therefore need to drink more, but water to bathe in is equally important. Bathing and preening are important parts of feather maintenance, baths help remove dirt, loose feathers, and other debris. A good bird bath has a rough surface so birds can grip it with their claws. Moreover, having shallow sloping sides to approach the water with varying water depths to allow each species to bathe at their preferred depth is ideal. The positioning of the bath is also very important, birds will only use it if they feel safe. Bird baths are the fastest and simplest way to add water to your garden bird habitat.
HOW TO USE
- Place the bird bath on the ground or a flat surface.
- Fill to the top step with water.
- Clean the bowl often and provide fresh water on a regular basis.
- Clean out droppings or algae frequently and do not allow water to get murky (this attracts mosquitoes).
- TIP: An ideal location will feature shrubs and trees for bird safety. Place away from any areas with predators (such as cats).

I thought this was quite pretty in my garden and have put a small solar powered bubble fountain in it but already it is losing its colour. It gets dirty very quickly and although I clean it each day you cannot get all the grime off and trying to with the hose I have noticed the light green colour is wearing off!
I gave it as a gift and my friend says it has been great.
Fantastic birdbath and easy for the bees and insects to drink from because of the design.
All made from recycled goods . Which I liked .
Lightweight and easy to clean , easy to move around and fill .
Great value.
I will be getting another .
Recommend this product and the seller .
I like the gentle graduation of the depth of water in this dish. I have placed a few small pebbles in it so that insects can get a drink and safely leave again. I had never seen anything like this before so was very pleased when it arrived and does what it says on the tin.
The birds love this bowl so much so that it needs water twice a day. Quite shallow, but probably that way for a reason.
This was a BD pressie to replace a plastic saucer. It good and birds happily bathing. I also put a large stone in middle for them to perch on. My BD February and put it out 4 weeks ago. Think I’ll bring it into garage during cold weather, as I do with some other things
This is amazing for all species to get a drink. I love the staged stepping and the beautiful design plus the fact it is recycled
It seems like a simple design so not sure why these have not been made before. Brilliant.
Price point is modest enough.
Love this can’t wait to put it out and watch nature buzzing around.
Highly recommend for all.
This was just what I wanted and I hope that in time it will weather to a shade of grey as the colour makes it look very new and stands out.
Birds like it. Could have done with it being a bit bigger. Seems a little expensive but if durable will be worth it.
Birds don’t really go to this yet, perhaps they will over time. I gave it some water to start but the paint flaked off, so I will re decorate when I have the chance and can find a similar paint.
Didn’t read the description properly, thought it was made of stone. However very please with purchase and it blends in well in the garden.
Well made and very attractive to look at. I like that small birds can safely take a bath, and that bees can also have access to water and drink in safety because of the ‘stepped’ effect. Unfortunately neither the birds or bees seem interested. It’s probably that they just need to get used to it, or that I haven’t put it in the right place. Will keep experimenting. . 🙂
We purchased this product as although the birds loved our previous bird bath unfortunately it was made if metal and was prone to rust. This bath is so safe with and as the base is graduated it attracts all kind of birds and bees.
This is a good quality little birdbath. It’s not quite as deep as I was expecting, but that’s probably my fault for not reading the description correctly. The material it’s made from makes it frost resistant, but also light enough to easily move around the garden.
This is the product I expected it to be – save for the fact it’s very much green in colour rather than the more neutral stone colour it appears in the picture. Birds use it, it sits on my patio and hasn’t moved in high winds even though it’s quite light – I assume because a full thing of water gives it enough weight to stay put. Happy days.
