I can't bring myself to clean the birdbath. Could you? Look at how lovely it is, and the birds don't seem to mind. (Click to enlarge.)
Rainwater, fallen leaves, the stained glass of this moment only, or that one, already altered since I photographed it. The birds declined to be part of the image, but they are there in the arrangement of the leaves, and they will be back to edit it many times before winter freezes their final work for the year in place.

Very pretty. Only someone truly obsessed or heartless would clean that birdbath.

Thank you, ladies. I'm glad you see what I see. :)
Alphabitch, I do sometimes worry that I am creating germ pits in the very habitat of creatures I love and wish only to help. But then I see them bathing themselves and drinking out of chemically slick puddles in potholes, and this makes me reconsider. I do put biologically designed anti-mosquito pellets (bacillus thuriensis, I think it is) in the water to prevent West Nile virus-carrying bugs from breeding in the birdbath. But other than that and keeping it from drying out, I like to let nature take its course. I do think it is best in every way.
And not just because I am a terrible housekeeper. :)
