Salpinctes obsoletus
A pale gray bird of rocky areas, the Rock Wren is found throughout arid western North America. The Rock Wren is not known to drink water, but instead gets all it needs from its food. Even five birds kept in captivity did not drink water when it was available.
Ground nesting and ground forager, it lives in the mountain west
This bird is extra-ordinary in that it can get all of its water from food. it does not need to drink
