Water for Birds

Today I found a little bird sitting on our wooden bench dazed and suffering from dehydration.
The bird let me hold it while I gave it drops of water until such time it was fully hydrated and could fly off.
During this heat wave please leave water out for the birds and fill it often as needed. Also, if you put a bowl of water out, place a rock in the middle of it for the birds to stand on otherwise they could drown.
The birds thank you!
