Dogs. Dawgs. Other critters. Life as Oliver Wendell Douglas. Live heirlooms, both flora and fauna. Self-sufficiency. Suffering not a fool to live. Land stewardship. Turnip trucks, and those who have not fallen therefrom. Training things. Growing things. Search and rescue. What is this bug and what is it doing under my desk light? Embracing the reality that Nature Bats Last.

Photo Phriday: The Only Thing Worse Than a Toad Living in Your Boot
Is, I am guessing, tucking in after a long night shift on bug duty, and waking up a few hours later because someone has picked up your house and is whacking it vigorously against another house in mid-air.
And then they stick a giant foot into your bedroom.
And then the yelling.
And then you get evicted.
For a long time we joked about the 'mystery pooper' - the critter that came up onto our front porch every night and crapped profusely in the corner by the door.
ReplyDeleteAfter I got lazy and left piles of dead leaves undisturbed in the corners of said porch I finally discovered him. A fat, brown toad noshing on bugs under my porch light.
He goes well with the bats and swallows, so we let him stay.
once i was driving and out of nowhere a large green tree frog jumped on my leg. I have no idea how he got in my car but he found a new home on a big oak tree.
