Buddha water feature not happy - part 2

Cleaning and testing the pump in the backyard Gazebo area at the wash basin.

Buddha water feature not happy - part 1

The solar pump water outlet flow is like a cyclic spitting?



Had to go up a stepladder which is at the end of a long pole (catch the sun) to remove the solar panel. At the workbench pulled the pump apart and nothing obvious jamming the motor - scratch head.

Auto fill/recycle bird bath - part 3

Setup the bird bath in the front yard along with a V380 wi-fi camera to monitor activity and keep a eye on the water level in the bucket. XXX

Moved from the back gazebo area to the front yard.
