Fish are dying in large numbers in shrinking waters, amphibians like frogs, toads and newts suffer as ponds and ditches dry out, and wading birds entering their breeding season have been hit by shrinking habitats and vanishing food supplies. Official drought zones have been declared in a further 17 English counties, as a warning came that water shortages could last until Christmas. [Source: BBC News]
