It has not been a good year for some of the area wild life: A summer devoid of cicadas' buzz: http://www.omaha.com/news/metro/a-summer-devoid-of-cicadas-buzz/article_81939d24-5148-59ad-86fb-563dfe331eed.html

I make sure to watch for any movement in the grass when I mow. I had a toad smaller than a penny jump into the street. After I was away from him, he jumped over the curb and went back into the grass. From today we have a nice toad sunning at the base of the fountain:

1. Awwww. Little (and big) toads are so cute

I know it's strange to think toads are cute but I think they are! Got a few of them in my yard too.

2. We have a few toad houses we bought in the yard

And they do get used from time to time.

3. As long as he toad the line I'd be okay with that
