Do you put out food or water for the wild birds?

I keep a saucer on a plant stand filled up with water for the sparrows that live in the purple martin house next door. I forgot this morning and looked out the window to see a sparrow staring in at me trying to make eye contact....took out a jug of water and filled it up and they all took turns taking a bath...now it needs a refill.🐤🐤

They will poop regardless, the neighbor has a mulberry tree and that brightens up my car and driveway for a few weeks in the spring. And I work at a car lot and feed the sparrows, cardinals and doves there too...the boss claims it causes them to poop on the cars and in the shop part of the building but I notice when I am gone for awhile and not feeding them they still come in and have their poops....can't blame me or the seeds for that.
