When you have a pig roast at your house you can ice the pig in it before you roast it and then wash it out well and fill it with ice, soda, water, and beer. A smaller tank will hold ice and a keg.

This quilt block shows a golden bird bath with a little bird on it. This is against a blue salmon-patterned background. The birdbath has a wide circular base, a cylinder support, and then a large concave half globe holding a bit of water. The bird is a deeper orange with dark tan tail feathres. The birdbath is outlined by dark stitches and light stitches, and has a bit of pen indicating water.

If birds have access to water they will take 2 or 3 baths a day. They bathe to clean themselves of parasites, ticks, lice, mites and fleas that can eat their feathers and cause infections and disease.
