Tiny visitor.

This seemingly delecate tiny tree frog was captured on the ground in our small orchard by Shirley. She placed the misplaced cous’n to Kermit on an apple tree where she felt it belonged! Roger

You snake in the grass!

Shirley stumbled–well almost–across this snake in the grass on one of her walk-abouts. I hate snakes! Shirley grew up on a farm near Hickory Corners and isn’t a bit sqeamish about animals, insects, frogs, turtles and even SNAKES!   I HATE snakes! Roger
