CHEAP-How to Make a $1 EASY SIMPLE Hummingbird Bird Bath Solar Water DIY Fountain Garden for Nature

[@Alyjens]

Robbie, you are delightful! Love your energy and your ideas!

[@cherylclark8656]

You have made me totally addicted to making bird baths for my precious hummers! Loving it so much! Looking for pieces to make them and be creative is so fun, too! So thankful I found your channel!

[@chanelprincess6061]

That is Amazing! Alot of people say the water runs out, of that solar fountain, but with this, it runs back into the bowl..WOOO HOOO!!

[@weaselwords99]

Okay, I am officially obsessed with your channel!! I wanna live your life girl...surrounded by birds and cute feeders and fountains!

[@patriciaglas1600]

I know right ...I'm so obsessed too! 😊

[@junenana634]

Me too

[@rene4482]

Once clicked on your video and I saw you, I simply fell a giant joy by seeing you. I never met you and it never happened with anyone else. You simply gave me good vibes and a great positive energy. GOD bless you and all around you!!!

[@robbieashton5003]

I'm currently working on a hummingbird bird bath and it's all thanks to you! I've been watching your videos for a while and your solar fountain inspired me. I still need to work the kinks out, when I attach the sprayer (?) part of the fountain, water goes everywhere. Thank you, the fountain I made brings me joy, your videos inspired me.

[@katiewest7908]

Me too. My only solution has been to have only a small amount of water in my bowl and of course, it dries out quickly .

[@connietowler3725]

Love how you made this. Last year I ordered a solar fountain, bought a TALL v shape flower pot, turned upside down and then a round flower pot to set on top, added water and stones, put in the sun, woohoo, water fountain. Used the same sprayer you used, love the sound it makes. Wanted an idea for front, you solved it. Thankyou for sharing, Great tutorial :)

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

So COOL! Love the sound of what you made! Thanks so much for sharing that, ENJOY, Robbie

[@michelesanchez6828]

You gave me an additional idea! Thankyou 😄

[@Yayatrucker53]

Got the pumps and the tubing now on the hunt for the other items you used to make these wonderful fountains. Love the bucket idea! Thanks @Robbie and Gary Gardening Easy

[@cherylbruce2270]

I put out a single hummingbird feeder every year and you have inspired me to put out a couple more as well as making a solar fountain for these beautiful creatures 😊. I love DIY and can’t wait to hit the Dollar Store for my supplies. I just ordered my pump from Amazon. Thank you for your videos and for showing how easy it is to create these fountains for our feathered friends ❤️.

[@louiseferrell1555]

I just ordered from Amazon as well ordered Friday evening delivery by Monday I'm excited and pumped!!

[@sarmke358]

Love it, great project to do with the grandchildren. Thank you so much!

[@tammyweinrick2739]

Absolutely love what you do. Got me excited to start my own garden and hummingbirds

[@idellalong1770]

I loved just watching you go thru your wonderful garden. I had given up growing tomatoes after I saw you using the totes I started composing and now I have tomatoes.thank you

[@AcornHillHomestead]

You could have filled the time with the recipe for your refreshing tea! 😋 cant wait to make one of these!

[@l.marcellelandriault3673]

I love your passion, your Joy of life and thank you for your generosity!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thank you so much!

[@pratyt5079]

Delightful! You could also use one of those cheap salad bowls with a Snap-On lid for storing/serving salad.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

YES YES YES, I already bought some too, thanks, Robbie

[@bride8305]

(HUG) You are so cute, love your hummingbird baths! I thank GOD for making you so talented, you have an awesome personality!

[@lionsroar9289]

Great idea ! Anything to help the little buzzers is is noble....

[@joinmeinthedirt5186]

Thank you Robbie! Just ordered 2 of them. I have Hummingbirds and Orioles now because you told us about Walmart feeders. Love all of your ideas. Just found a tiny bird with eggs in my ornamental bird house. I put suet out incase its a wren.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Hope they are all back now, thank you, Robbie

[@louiseferrell1555]

This is such an escape from this world's chaos love my feather friends so relaxing 😌

[@INFJparadox]

I had no idea how a fountain worked either! Thank you so much for this :)

[@brendadelorespoole565]

I love your creativity, thrift and love for all nature in it's natural state

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thank you! 😊

[@annragsdale8847]

I'm on my third solar pump!! So glad I found you. Someone gave me a nice soldering rod with an on/off switch. I'm just going around looking for stuff to poke holes in :). Nice Cutco knife by the way... ;)

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

So cool! I have to unplug mine as I use it, thanks and have fun, Robbie

[@LillyR539]

Me too ha ha

[@lauraant9973]

I didn’t have a soldering iron so I used a candle and a Phillips head screwdriver!

[@tessloneill7978]

I love your enthusiasm. Also, your directions were great. Simple and clear. Now, I am on my way to make a hummingbird bird bath.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

I so love this solar fountain units, take care and be well, Robbie

[@lynz45]

That's a very cute idea! Adding the rocks is a good idea for the hummers but also for the bees. I have bees getting in my bird bath and noticed they were drowning 😢😢 so I added rocks to help them cling on.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

You are right, bees really do need the rocks so they can carefully climb to the edge to get their little drop of water, thanks, Robbie

[@seeddreamer]

I have 3 solar fountains for the hummingbirds thanks to you! The cheap Walmart 4 for $1 plate and the Dollar Store Chip and Dip fountains are working great! Then I saw the cookie tray/oil pan fountain that someone made and used a cafeteria tray for a similar water feature. The solar panel runs a manifold of 3 drippers and 2 streams of water easy peasy! Wish I could send you a picture. Just got them up and running and have not noticed any hummingbirds enjoying them YET, but the goldfinches have been using all three so I am feeling successful. I was a little concerned about how to clean the fountains because I have rather large reservoirs under the C&D and the Tray. I just discovered I could empty and clean them easily with the shop vac! How often do you clean the water in your fountains? My last water feature is a mister which I am not sure a solar panel has enough pressure for. I have hooked it up to a hose and a timer and am wondering what time of day to set the timer for? Have you noticed any special time of the day that the hummingbirds like to bathe? I am only using one mister out of 20 in the kit I bought. I would gladly send you a mister if you would like to play with it? It has a super fine, low pressure spray .

[@teresaholland4790]

You are so talented and nice to share all of your talents

[@guniopoyuki6544]

I am sure you get plenty of birds but Hummingbirds really like shade as opposed to full sun. They stay longer and gang up as well! Good job and great idea!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

As long as it is not too hot, and we have been cold here for 6 months, they love the sun, thanks, Robbie

[@vandebogartbowers7565]

okay you convinced me I'm making a water feature

[@teddibrownbrown3620]

I love you just want to see how the parts go togeather. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

@@teddibrownbrown3620 I plan on getting more on solar fountains very soon, thanks, Robbie

[@The_Remnant86]

Thankyou for sharing your great ideas, I really love the simplicity of this project and your enthusiasm! It very refreshing in this crazy world we live in today!

[@lesliepease3988]

I didn't know about the pumps, especially solar pumps! Thank you for sharing this wonderful idea. I will have these fountains all over my garden.

[@CAHummingbird]

Plastic paper plate holders have readymade slots! That just jumped into my head while watching❣️🙏😘

[@dcwatashi]

I can’t picture those

[@barbarahatfield8027]

I hear a roaster awwww remind me when I was little the roaster would wake us up. By the way I like your video . Things are simple . I have that bowl too . Have a nice day

[@JewlofTheNile914]

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

I too just went to a thrift store again today, and found such great cheap finds, that are going to make the greatest bird baths, some especially for hummingbirds, thank you very much, Robbie

[@talkingheads705]

Very cool, all the birds and squirrels can use it, especially in hot weather. Kudos to you for making a water fountain🐥🐿💙

[@j.niccicoffie3272]

So glad I found your channel. I ADORE hummingbirds! My goal is to create a sanctuary for them with plants, water features and places to nest. I love DIY projects, and you have great ideas. I love your enthusiasm- you are so cute. Thanks for putting out this info. What is that pretty pink flower that the bee visited? Future video ideas: plants that hummingbirds love in your garden, how to make safe, enticing nesting areas, how high to hang feeders, life cycles/habits/seasonality of hummingbirds. How to attract other pretty song birds.

[@sancraft1]

I'm in the hobby lobby parking lot making my list. We have a few acre homestead that w just moved into 6 weeks ago. Lots of projects. We use those plates in our rv.

[@joannbingham2535]

I LOVE YOUR WATER 💧😍 FEATURES

[@77rubyruby]

Hi Robbie! I just discovered your channel about 10 minutes ago. And believe it or not, as I was watching this video I heard a bang on my living room window and thought to myself oh my gosh what bird just flew into my window! So I pressed pause, put down my iPad and went out on my front porch to check. Low and behold, what kind of bird do you think I saw? It was a little hummingbird and it was laying on its side on my porch with one wing flapping. As I reached down to pick it up and try to help it hopefully recover from its shock, thankfully it rose up on its own and flew away. Bless his little heart! 🌺

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Maybe he heard the hummingbirds on your iPad...no just kidding.....as long as they hit the window not to hard, they can recover and take off, he must have knocked the wind out of himself, just SO happy you were their to help him out, as that is when Cats and Crazy little dogs can do their damage during that time when they hit the ground, thanks for sharing, Robbie

[@halleluyah8241]

Just got the pump today and can't wait to add another water feature - thank you so much for this wonderful idea! Love you!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Me too, love all my water features, and SO easy to change them too, Take care, Robbie

[@mirandaa3839]

Thanks for this. I was going to buy fountain for my small patio. . This is within my budget and doable.

[@janeknight5070]

I’m going to make this ,this week end. This is the right size I’ve been looking for.

[@heathermartinez4673]

I absolutely loved your video. I just got my pumps in and I'm excited to get them made. I live in the desert so my humming birds will love these. Thanks so much for the idea. Hugs Heather

[@TheRosetone]

Thank you Robbie! Can't wait to try this. Love your videos. You are always saving us so much time, money & hassle. I've used several of your gardening tips. They work!!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thank you so much! Robbie

[@lolal1026]

Easy enough to do & good for the birds... love my Cutco knives !!

[@josephyim2301]

Howdy Robbie, just reviewed your site where you made a bird bath; &noticed you having a soldering iron rolling on your table, consider having Gary make a stand for it from an old/discarded wire coat hanger shaped like a medium size "pigtail " or medium sized corkscrew. My thought as a Safety tool stand for you. Keep up your great show!!!

[@hope46sf]

Bless you, Robbie!

[@cherylpenn4509]

Love this. Love your humming birds. Im totally entranced.

[@chellesville8268]

Girl you are so creative, I love watching, I am binge watching today! Have a great day!

[@mindyhyler8188]

I love solar pumps!!!!! I have them everywhere . Thank you I never thought of making one like this!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

I have bushtits in these too, too fun, and easy to change around too, take care, Robbie

[@ruskell100]

Where can I find these small Solar water pumps?

[@katiemichalik9829]

Thank you for the video😊 i love in Illinois in an apartment I put out flowers for the hummingbirds and two feeders with your great 4 cups to 1 cup of sugar formula😊 I have two hummingbirds coming so far, but they eat and fly away🙁 I can't wait to make this fountain I hope they stay around longer😊 we've had pretty weird weather lots of rain and snow day in April🙁

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

We here in So. Calif have had no Spring....very odd weather here too, but just starting to warm a bit, nights are still 10 or more below normal, and MANY song birds have not shown up yet and other birds too have not come in...we will see how it goes and what shows up. I think the weird weather has been pretty much across the USA, even other parts of the world too, thanks, Robbie

[@LillyR539]

Me too Hello from Illinois

[@bonitahowell3340]

Thanks from Texas.

[@pixyfairy4721]

I made this yesterday, really working well, thank you.

[@carolinegray3150]

Nice bird sounds

[@megankay5179]

Such a good idea! I’m going to make one of these for our neighborhood birds

[@pepperderr1388]

I'm doing this with a plastic flower pot that I got at a flower store that has pretty hummingbirds painted on it. It doesn't have a hole in the bottom so it will be great to hold the water. The tip of a hot glue gun works to melt holes too. Thanks!

[@kelcritcarroll]

Cool! I have found that when i have an oscillating sprinkler on my hummers fly through the sprinklers over and over....i often wondered why they never went into my normal big bird bath, kinda thinking it was too deep and intimidating for them...great video!

[@em286]

That's really awesome Robbie I'm definitely gonna make a few of those. 😊😎❤

[@vickieowens8946]

That is so cute! I love it.

[@judithmirocco1940]

Thank you guys I love your channel you get me motivated. Lol

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

You are so welcome ❤️

[@shelleywelch55]

I love All of your videos! Gardens and Hummingbirds... thanks for all the info!

[@bbghillini1793]

I bought the Hummingbird feeder at Walmart yesterday. Their price was $5.97. They did not have many left. I got one Hummer an hour later. I hope more will come. Thank you.

[@debrastone3536]

Thank you for the wonderful idea. I just purchased one to give it a try.😀

[@autumnisnothere]

Thank you so much for your tutorial and especially for the links to the kits. I didn't think about looking on eBay and I was getting frustrated trying to find the right one. Hooray! You are just too cute AND you have a Yorkie!!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

A few years ago myself, I had no idea what a solar pump was...I found them online, bought one and I was hooked, Thank you so much, Robbie

[@jenjen7594]

What a great idea!! I have some squatty popcorn tins that I will try to use of this by turning the lid upside-down after drilling some holes. I can't wait to watch the birds bathing in it. A wooden circle would also work for the top :)

[@ednajensen3164]

Love, love your channel.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thank you so much!

[@jackiesicilian5720]

You're amazing! 👏 can't wait to make one for my hummingbirds!!

[@annashobbies4350]

Perfect idea! I will add that I plan on recycling my gallon ice cream tubs for this project. Excellent video. Thanks for the tips.💕🐡💕

[@sunshine4ever783]

Thanks for the idea! I have an existing rock bird bath and I am going to buy that pump to bubble the water. The ideas are endless! Just found your channel last night. Thanks for all the info in your videos.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

I have lots more fun ideas and thoughts so to come, thanks, Robbie

I love this! I will be getting one. Thank you for using eBay instead of feeding the monster Amazon.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thanks so much! Robbie

[@janicemcclellan9920]

Robbie, you are so awesome! I love birds and of course hummingbirds are my favorite. I live in an apartment complex and where I'm at I don't get much sun. I guess I could use an electric solar powered for my birds. I'm guessing the cost will be so much more. Thank you for sharing your ideas. You have a great gift of imagination. God bless you.

[@ricknally8730]

Great presentation of humingbird feeders and watering holes . $ Dollar Tree $ sells plastic bowels where a plastic Dixie plate would fit down in the bowl . I'm going to go buy inexpensive bowls . A metal bowl seems like it would get hot and the water would as well . Also using large red clay saucers would be effective too . Wouldn't have to worry about them being tossed by the wind . I'll work on this and email some pictures . Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing your joy of taking care of our Creators feathered friends . I also saw another humingbird U-tube demonstration of an ant guard . Ants won't cross water . Use your imagination . It's simple logic . A willingness to excel in "creative ideas" that are easy to do and get the job done . You done good mame .

[@michelesanchez6828]

A clay pot! Great idea!

[@shirleyandjessie]

Thank you for sharing your wonderful idea! Love it !

[@TheMiddaydreamers]

I'd suggest putting some gravel in the bottom. Not only will it hold the plate down but it can act as a bit of a filter for the water

[@julieankhan.2801]

The birdies will feel safer too

[@zenbooter]

Just remembered I’ve misplaced my cutco I paring knife. Great show, thanks.

So cool, how wonderful!!!! Thank you so much for sharing that with all of us, again, Thanks! Robbie

[@videomejoe]

Thanks so much Robbie, I have been looking for a good fountain/water pump setup for awhile to keep the birds from eating my tomatoes.

[@debbieskinner4402]

Cut a little groove in the top lip of the bowl your cord will go down in. On the plastic ones you could use your soldering iron.

[@LindaB651]

Just ordered the kit- much love from Rhode Island!

[@gailradloff6132]
