Yep, when we used to have one that we kept water in, it was usually frequently visited. I also had a bird feeder nearby.

One summer day, my bird bath had at least 20-30 bees on and buzzing around it which was interesting. I am sure they were drinking more than bathing.

Couple of mornings, had a monstrous-sized hawk sitting on it, taking a bath. He had the place all to himself.

What's interesting is that if there's a lack of water, but there is dusty sand around, they'll go through the same motions in the sand.

Not my pics


and often when you see this, they end up creating little depressions in the sand/dust from all of the bathing.
