Probably a salt lick (sometimes called a mineral lick). Herbivores like cows, horses, giraffes, and deer crave salt. People will leave these blocks of salt out to lure animals for hunting, photography, etc.
and now a wildlife...

You can buy these frogs. The frogs themselves aren't poisonous. In the wild they eat ants. The ants are toxic and the poison builds up in the frog's body. The poison wears off if the frogs are fed non-poisonous insects.

We also have Great egrets here. The great egret is 94-104 cm tall while the snowy egret is only 56-66cm tall. Even without the size comparison, it's easy to tell them apart. The great egret has a yellow bill and black feet. The snowy egret has a black bill and yellow feet.

One of the good things about living in the desert is that things congregate near the water.

I used to live in Astoria. The deer out there would (if they'd even noticed) have thought a sprinkler was just the rain falling up. It falls every other direction on the coast.....

Ah! A drinking fountain so the critters can wash down their meal. How thoughtful! :)
How about a golden marmot?
