Thanks! It's a very easy project and versatile :)

I learned something today! 😊

I have never seen a watering station for bees and butterflies done like this. I’ve had a mud puddle in my yard for butterflies and am planning a wildlife pond now. I especially like having the puddle elevated so that I can watch it at a distance. I have found that it will be necessary to provide different water features throughout my yard because some of the insects I want to attract, like dragonflies, butterflies and bees will be come prey to other animals. By having separate places for feeding and breeding, I hope to protect some of them while providing habitat for frogs, toads, turtles, fish and snakes. Now I need to find videos that show me how to do it. 😊 Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

Providing habitat for all of them is a challenge! Of course, it's all part of the circle of life. As much as we want all the pollinators to live, the caterpillars and larvae are so important for their predators to survive as well. It's a tough choice.

I have the same bird bath, and what an excellent idea for my butterfly garden. This I will try, thank you!

It's a fun and easy project!

What I did to fix my bird bath I made that wasn’t stable: got some wide PVC, cut the height I wanted it, painted it, and then put bar down inside it for even more stability. I have another that has taller wooden “stakes” inside but my sister was worried the wood would rot. I thought about possibly pouring concrete inside it, but honestly - no time right now since it’s a temp fix lol

Isn't it funny how temporary fixes ending being long-term ones? LOL

Im going to make a few of these with my kids. ❤

This is a great project for kids! I bet they will have fun :D Lori

Interesante ❤

It said to refresh every month … do you have to change out the sand? I have a birdbath that I’m going to convert. I have smaller rocks. Can I use pieces of tree limbs for the bees to land on?

I don't change out all the sand as often, but I do rinse it out well and refresh with the compost and salts. You can really be creative and use whatever you like for the landing perches!

What the He** kind of sand is that?

It’s coarse sand.
