If you are feeling like you are being watched, you might very well be!
Three photos in a collage. Top photo is a pickrelweed leaf laying on plywood and the edge of a hot tub liner. Middle photo is the photo zoomed in on the stem and a small tree frog's head is visible. Bottom photo is entirely the tree frog head and leaf stem, and the frog is staring intensely at the camera.

This bullfrog was completely uncooperative about receiving help to get out of the pool. He was gone when we got home, so he either used the frog log to get out or a bird-of-prey had a good meal. Gorgeous boy!

If a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, what's the exchange rate on a bird in a house for bird(s) in the bush?

We got about 4.25 inches of snow here in south GA. Very pretty!

For anyone looking for a comprehensive planner, I found this one has more than everything I've needed. It has spots for monthly calendars and monthly reviews, quarterly planning and review, daily planning/tasks, weekly reviews, and much more. Clever Fox Planner Pro Premium a.co/d/iXrMlof

A least tern putting an exclamation point on the sign 😆
A least tern sitting on a post that holds a sign saying "Keep out Bird nesting area" and additional information. Behind the bird are sand dunes with sea oats.
