I've had a bit of birdbath tribulation as well. When I put it out the back for the first time it wasn't long before the damn myna birds took it over and started bossing away all the birds I wanted to attract 🙁So I put it around the side of the house and now I never see birds there because it's too close to our door. The bees get a drink though.
