Rain Water

I have installed the data logger in the bird house and will only collect the readings in 3 weeks time.

When I was at the bird house, I noticed that the water tanks for the humidifiers are empty. The water in the water tanks are rain water collected from the roof gutter. I assumed that the water collected in the tanks can last for at least 10 days without rain but I was wrong. Only 5 days without rain and the tanks became dry.

I have decided to install an additional tank to collect the rain water so that it can last for at least 10 days. If the problem persists, I may have to reconnect the water from the water main. It cost about RM500 for deposit and a minimum usage charge of RM15 per month.
