Very worthwhile . I have about 15 species daily here that partake of the
water. I have it in a sunny spot on a wide deck railing all day but it
still means I need to go out in the morning and chop the ice off, clean and
fill again. There's still water out and about, but it's a nice way to help
and see the birds while the bears may be still out and about. Vicky Arthur
