frog on a misson - picture link
This Pacific Chorus frog was hanging out
on a bridge in my fairy garden last night. The bridge sits over a tiny pond. Probably a good place to have a snack. http://tinyurl.com/2y2n4a k :-) |

Adorable. What is the plant on the left? Cilantro? ~ jan Not cilantro but it is some kind of herb... bought on one of our plant buying trips. I bought it for its fairy garden potential. It has the strangest bloom. I'll try and get a picture of it and post it. k :-) |

The flower to this herb starts out as a round globe with individual green flowery bits opening all around it.Then it sends out purple stamens with starburts of pollen at the end of them. k :-) |

This is the folks who are responsible
for the bridge http://www.thefairysgarden.com/ Tonight the frog was on sitting on an urn that I also ordered from the same place. There is a chair in the front of him with a porcelain frog in it. Picture is kind of blurry. http://tinyurl.com/2twoe5 k :-) |

oups.com... Hi Gail! Nice to hear from you. Jim Howdy, howdy. I'm still around, I just don't have much to contribute so I don't! Ponds are in good shape. Well, the in-ground pond needs some work but I haven't been up to it. So far the goldies do ok with my neglect. I have about a dozen babies in the above-ground goldfish pond, mostly shubunkin, by their looks. I've seen tree frogs, green frogs and toads in and around the ponds. I just put a plank into a plastic container that had 3 toads or frogs swimming around. I had dumped the container at one point, but it acquired a wasp nest, and I didn't get around to dumping it before the latest rains. It does get mosquito dunked, as do all bodies of water that are fishless. All the rain we've been getting this year has been great for frogs, toads, dragonflies, etc. (also weeds, but let's not discuss that!). Gail near San Antonio TX USA |

Thanks for the update. We have been really busy this spring. Last
year Phyllis stopped being the headmaster of her school and moved to being development director. They really don't need someone full time in that role, so she has moved to being director of childrens' ministries at our church. Lots for her to do...apart from the pond. She would rather enjoy it with me than do the maintenance anyway. I have had a very full spring with regular teaching, traveling to Africa, teaching internationals, etc. The result is that only basic maintenance was done. In the last week, I have finally begun the standard cleaning...and noticed babies in our berm pond and even a few in the main pond. If all goes well, I will begin puttering around the pond in the early morinings (5-7 AM). Maybe we can post some pics later on picassaweb or TFA. May your rains stop! And visit her some. Jim |
