first dragonfly
 

The first dragonfly of the season crawled out of
the frog bog today and has been drying its wings
while perched on a cattail stalk.
Another batch of tree frog eggs from jj's pond
arrived today.
Taddies in the tub pond and pondsill are swimming
around.
Lady Bullfrog has disappeared.
For now.
Found a new garden toy.

Look at the Firefly.
Ordered one for me. After the stress of the
last four days, I deserve a toy!

Hmmmm, a solar powered frog?
Well, I guess frogs are actually solar powered
as they only work when they soak up warmth
from the sun, no warmth, no croak!

Well mine doesn't croak, it simply has spots
with a weird greenish glow.

Hey!
There's merit in this.
I think...
What shall we have it sing??

"Run Over on the Road to Love"
"You're a Wart on my Heart"
"Croakin' and Smokin' Duckweed"

I hope the store clerks forgive me for what I have done.

Especially if it's motion activated.

(Hmmm, now if we can change what it says...)

Our grocery store just got the solar frogs in, can singing bullfrogs be far
behind...

Lady bullfrog update:
She's back. She's not squished, she outwitted two 18 year old boys.
Plan two - night action. We're going to wait for our first warm night, don the
black clothes, the black makeup, get out the flashlights and nets and see if we
can get her that way.
