We Picnicked
like birds
and climbed like lizards 
we observed a northern water snake 
as it caught a toad
and the creek was full of them!
because it's mating season
see the strand of eggs?
So we didn't disturb them for long,there was plenty more to discover
like hearts for Mama
frog eggs
and plantlife

Those first few photos should be in some sort of natural clothing catalog! Looks like such a beautiful & relaxing day. Love the handful of frogs. :)
Beautiful day full of wonderful discoveries!
That handful of toads made me laugh! :)
We don't get that around here. Makes me miss Oklahoma.
What a glorious day.
If we ever get another warm day again, I'll be celebrating, too!
Just beautiful, Shona.
