A Bucket’s Eye-View of Desert Animals Drinking Water


John Wells, an alternative energy and sustainable researcher living in the desert area of Terlingua, Texas, put a GoPro camera in a water bucket to capture a unique perspective of animals, including a bunny, burro, and birds, drinking much-needed water on a hot day.

“Everybody loves water in the desert. I was pleasantly surprised during the edit to see that George made an appearance. I know him from all the other rabbits because of the tiny notch in his ear. A burro just happened to come by in time to be included. Ben went against the script and decided to just nudge the bucket. You can lead a steer to water but you can’t make him drink. The swimming bees were rescued.”
