For the past few nights, I have gone out for a moonlit walk, to find a tiny green tree frog sitting on the porch chair. Being the porch is screened in, I don't want the little thing to somehow get trapped without food, so I pick him up and put him right outside the door. It's an ordeal that takes a few minutes usually. The little frog is about the size of a quarter, and likes to cuddle down in my palm to warm himself a little before hopping to the plants.
It's one of the many signs that spring is finally breaking through the cold. The turtles and the frogs have come out after burying themselves for the winter. I'd normally say that you can see the plants going into bloom, but around here, our flowers bloom throughout the year and a good portion stay green leaved if they're not flowering.
