Where to buy a Bird Bath?

Post by mike strand2 »

I'm looking to enhance my garden with a bird bath. I visited the Garden Centre in Kissonerga today but they don't sell them.

Any suggestions folks?

Surely a bird bath would attract snakes...

As I was unable to find anything to my liking, (if at all) I have decided to use my hobbyist skills and make my own.

Having had no luck finding what I was looking for in Pafos, I set about building one to my own design, using clay pots & dishes from the local garden shop. Some strong adhesive and clear external varnish to complete the project. Cost about €65 plus my labour :)
