Gardening
Related: About this forumAnother garden, another tiny frog. This one is quite different.
This has been quite the weekend of unusual sightings. Yesterday I saw a hummingbird for the first time in YEARS. It was at the Butterfly bush that's just outside the kitchen window. there wasn't time to grab my camera.

(658 posts)Wonderful critters. They can change color and texture to match their background. They can withstand dryness better than most frogs, sometimes sleeping in direct sunlight. They sleep during the day and are active at night. Their suction cup feet can grip smooth horizontal surfaces, like windows. I had one that would show up on our porch every night and eat out of my hand.

I love learning new things, so stuff like this makes my day!

of those type frogs on my back deck yesterday. One hung out on a chair on my deck all day and was still there when the sun was setting.
