Question
I often see wild birds bathing in small pools. I don't recall ever seeing a bird cage with a bath in it.
Do pet birds need (or want) to have a water bath?
Question inspired by How to help (wild) birds with water?
Answer
That does totally depend on the bird!
"pet bird" covers basically everything from macaw over pigeons to zebra finches, all of which have vastly different needs.
So, always check the needs of your kind of bird.
PS: For birds that do like to water-bath: Some may like water bowl, some may like to shower. If you have a bird, you should take that preference into consideration, too. And I found this great example of a birdbath...
