I hope you sleep well Manta and they call you soon
I love watching birds in bird baths. We have one out the front of our place. We see all sorts if different birds. I hear you about the cats Manta. One of my previous cats swiped a bird from the bird bath. I was devastated, because I felt partially responsible, and so I stopped filling it. That cat has since passed away, and now I have an indoor only cat, so the birds are safe again.
