Providing water for wildlife, especially mid-summer!

Don't forget about the needs of the other wildlife that call your yard "home." Providing water, especially in the heat of summer, will be greatly appreciated by your local wildlife. Squirrels and other wildlife (such as nocturnal species you may never see), can drink easily from make-shift ground baths, such as a shallow planter drip tray filled with water.
