I usually close up the coop before bed and clean out the foot baths one more time so they are fresh in the morning. This little frog looked so comfy in his soak, I didn’t have the heart to dump him out. It has been so dry here, he was probably through the moon to find a “puddle”. He better skedaddle in the morning, though. He is about the size of a cicada, and the chickens make short work of cicadas. Taking pictures with a phone flash in the dark is not the best conditions for a good picture, but at least the subject is recognizable.

We had a tiny sprinkling of rain and the frogs and toads came out again. It doesn’t seem as if we have as many as last year, even with our wet spring.

This striking little guy was crawling across the bedroom floor. I think the cat brought him in. After taking his picture, I returned him to the wilds of the back yard. The rainbow shimmer is quite striking!
