Toad

Maybe if I sit quiet she won't notice me.



This morning I worked like a "banshee" (Gary's word) to move a woodpile from spot A to spot B in order to tidy up the back yard and make it easier for Gary to mow. Turns out I disturbed an entire ecosystem that had set itself up since that tree fell down.







And this king-sized grass hopper seems to be missing a leg, so I had to take his photo too. After a week of rain, it seems like the plants and animals have sprung to life, including some mushrooms I've never seen before. (Don't worry, I won't eat them.)
