As we enter yet another week of drought conditions please, I beg you, put out water for the wildlife. They have nothing. No puddles. No ponds. No streams. All have dried up. Sometimes the birds are thought of and provided for. But the nocturnal animals go unseen. Unthought of. No kind dishes. Just the tantalising smell of water from a pond they may drown in, or a drain they may get trapped in. Or a stagnant, dirty old birdbath they may get fatal fluke from. Hedgehogs need to drink a lot of water to stay healthy. Please provide clean, fresh, safe, ground level water each evening for our precious nocturnal wildlife. Tap water is best. Pop a dish or two out tonight. Dying of thirst is a terrible, painful way to die. It should never happen to any animal, and certainly not in a country that has the safest tap water in the world. The few minutes it takes you to fill a dish will make the difference between life and death.❤️
