water-hole
Desert animal gathering
A water-hole is a natural depression where water collects, especially in arid regions where animals gather to drink: Lions often hunt near water-holes.
The term extends to any watering spot for livestock.
Informally, a water-hole is a bar or tavern—a place where humans gather to drink: We stopped at the local water-hole after work.
