@Gemma posted a hummingbird video with them bathing awhile back. I gave me an idea to try something similar. I made this from a stone, drilling a large hole down the center then the 4 small holes that the water comes out of. I am trying to see if the hummingbirds will use it, any bird really. The rock is angled a little so the run off goes back into the pond. I wanted a nice swallow area for them. It was a fun little project. We will see if it attracts anything. I have a small pump in my skimmer running this. I can adjust the flow and I may slow it down a little more.

It looks really good! I have no doubt some birds will use it, I'm really curious to see if hummers will

Love it! I see the birds bathing up on the deck pond water fall.
