FROG BIRD BATH
The Frog Is Holding the Lily Pad
The name suggests a frog sitting on a pad. It is the other way round. The frog is the pedestal, standing on webbed feet with the whole basin overhead, which is a stranger and better idea.
It looks at you. The eyes sit high on the head, wide apart, and the mouth carries a slight upward line. At 21.8 inches it is at the height where a child notices it first.
Two Pieces, One Twist
Every concrete bird bath we carry uses the same twist fit, whatever the shape.
Your Concrete Frog Bird Bath Lily Pad Basin, up in three steps
-
1
Insert top into bottom
Lift the basin onto the pedestal and drop the collar into the socket. Two people make this easy, one person can manage it.
-
2
Twist to lock
Turn the basin a quarter turn until it seats. No adhesive, no fixings, and it comes apart again the same way.
-
3
Level and fill
Check it sits flat all the way round, then fill to about two inches.
What You Get With This Concrete Frog Bird Bath Lily Pad Basin
-
01
The frog is the structure, not an ornament beside it.
Most animal bird baths park a small figure next to a plain column and the eye reads two objects. Here the frog stands on its own feet and carries the basin overhead, so the whole thing is one form. It is also the reason it works from every angle rather than having a correct side.
-
02
A lily pad basin with veins and two flowers.
The pad radiates from a center point the way a real one does, and the two water lilies sit on the rim rather than being painted on. The rim is uneven because a pad edge is uneven, which gives better grip than a smooth circle.
-
03
Fill to two inches, not to the brim.
At that depth chickadees stand on the pad edge and sip, robins get right in between the lilies. Filled to the top it becomes a drinking stop.
-
04
Twenty five pounds and low.
At 21.8 inches it is shorter than a full pedestal bath, which puts it within reach of children and makes it the piece they show visitors.
Near a path, at the edge of a border, beside a pond if you have one. It reads best with green around it and it wants to be seen from the front, though the standing pose works from most angles. Twenty two inches is a safe height for birds. Leave two or three feet of open ground and keep a shrub within a short flight.
