I would appreciate some advice here. My garden club donated a birdbath to our local nature preserve. {See the picture} I would like to add a reservoir and pump to this, as unobtusively as possible to keep the water fresh in it without preserve personnel having to come out and fill it on a daily basis. I would like to make it solar powered. I envision a really slow moving drip sort of water feature so as not to scare off the birds. Do any of you think this is feasible? I could get funds from both the garden club and the preserve for the equipment part of this, but I would like the mechanics to be as simple as possible. I would appreciate all advice since I have never had anything but a table top fountain. Thanks in advance,
Martha
