Around
is designed as a bird table or bird bath for hanging on your balcony,
terrace or even in a tree. A hanging bird table or bath keeps birds safe
from cats and makes them easier to observe. The ceramic shell for use
as a bird bath is sealed. The shell for use as a bird table has two
holes for drainage.
We developed Around in collaboration with Italian designer and bird expert, Luca Galmarini.
Construction
The
steel parts are made of strong stainless steel that will not rust. It
is easy to assemble, without the need for tools. Just put the roof onto
the ring and secure with the screw sleeve. Then, screw the hook into the
top of the sleeve. Now fit the ceramic bowl into the ring. The groove
fits the radius perfectly and keeps the ceramic in place. Around has a
very sturdy and storm-proof construction. You can always use a chain or
rope to compensate if the hanging height is not suitable.
Ceramic bowl
The
ceramic bowl is made of CeraNatur® and coated with Granicium®. The
rough surface gives birds and insects security. The high-quality ceramic
is frost-proof, UV-resistant and sea water-resistant. We give a 15-year
weather-proof guarantee.
Cleaning
To protect
against disease, the ceramic bowl must be cleaned regularly, preferably
every two days. To do so, take the bowl off the ring and clean it with
water and a brush. Natural vinegar-based cleaner can be used for heavier
soiling. Then replace the bowl and fill with food or water.
Feeding in summer
Because of shortages of food, experts now advise also putting suitable food out for birds during the summer. Suitable food is available to buy from pet shops or conservation organisations.
Using the bird bath in the winter
Birds
need water regularly, especially during the winter, so it makes sense
to use the bird bath all year round. Even if the water freezes, the
formation of ice will not harm the ceramic. During longer periods of
frost, the ceramic bowl should regularly be filled with warm water, so
that birds still have access to water, even when the weather is very
cold.
