Are bird baths considered water positions?

[fufu_88_99]

Dear cecil and robert,
I needed to know if bird baths are considered
to be water bodies. And do they require
the same consideration for placement as
acqauriums and fountains. Or they do not effect any thing since they are placed outside the houses and are used seasonally.
Thanks.

Hi,
Generally bird baths that are equivalent of a face bath bowl or the `sink' should not be considered as a water position.
But becareful, if it is more than 1 metre and have stagnant water, it is not auspicious. There should be some activity at the bird bath.
More...
As for birds, there are two situations with regards to birds:-
Those that fly freely and those that are caged.
A `secret' weapon of Feng Shui is that it is auspicious to have birds flying freely around your house. This means that there are trees around the house to provide a serene environment. Here it is `as good as' having Feng shui enhancers e.g. fountains.
For caged birds, for many society and even for most Chinese, this is not auspicious.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
