I've been cleaning my bird bath weekly, and I had the thought - is it safe or beneficial to use the water, even if it has some bird droppings, for my lime tree? Any thoughts on this?

I find it interesting! I have my bird bath right under my lime tree too. What I do is just tip the bath over after cleaning, and it seems to work fine! No harm done to the tree at all.
Yep, you can definitely use that water! Just make sure it’s not too dirty, but a little bird poop can actually provide nutrients for your lime tree. Just dilute it a bit if you're concerned about it being too concentrated.
Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted to know!
