description given for video: “We haven’t had rain here in Texas in months … It is so hot & so dry down here that this baby armadillo bravely came straight over to us for a drink of water out of the hose!!”

Not so cute, actually pretty sad. Armadillos are mostly nocturnal; this video shows how desperate the situation is in TX.

That's for sure, we NEED some rain.
It's very dry and humid here.

We sure do need rain! Every day I check the bird feeders andput fresh water in the birdbath and there are always more birds at the birdbath drinking than at the feeders. The other day I even saw a few wasps and bees at the birdbath drinking. Things are BAD here.

That must be terrible. We've had very rainy weather, much more than usual. Hope you get some soon.
