When I was growing up we always had a pool. I had forgotten how many creatures will drink from your swimming pool until moving here to Casa de Pajaro. I have observed the deer drinking from the pool, squirrels, bird, insects and even bats. Yes bats. During the summer, the bats would glide down a drink from the pool about 9pm.
What is most amazing to me is that Olive, the cat now finds the swimming pool to be her big water dish as well. In the morning when I let her out of the house, she runs for the pool. She's learned to leverage her body with one leg on the side of the pool while the other leg is on the top. The water bowl with fresh water in the house now is untouched day after day.
