Moving water has a unique power to attract wildlife to your garden and add a wonderful musical sound to your garden. Solar garden fountains provide a earth friendly and economical way to have a wonderful water feature in your yard. Solar garden fountains provide a great place for birds to gather and splash. In addition to birds moving water can also attract a variety of other wildlife to your yard.

A solar garden fountain should always be placed in an open area so birds can have warning if a predator is nearby. Solar power makes sense for your garden fountain for many different reasons. Many people are committed to saving energy while others do not want to harm their plant beds to bring power to the fountain. The solar panels are usually installed very discreetly on the fountain.

Usually you will not even notice that they are there. Some models will have separate solar panels which are connected to the fountain with a cord. With these types you can place the fountain wherever you desire and place the panel in the best location for getting direct sunlight. There are many different shapes and styles to look at when selecting a solar garden fountain. If your garden includes a pond you might want to take a look at floating fountains.

Often it will look like a lily pad and spray water up from the pond. Solar garden fountains are often shaped like fish, frogs, and other creatures. You can also find solar water fountains in more classic designs such as tiered and cascading fountains. You can also use solar garden fountain kits to transform any fountain into a solar fountain. Inside the kits you will find a solar panel, a water pump, and a cable which connects the panel to the fountain. These kits are a cheap and easy way to have your own solar fountain.
