Two visitors to my garden

One had to rescue the other!

The amphibian is making his way out of the garden.  The other visitor wants potato and leek soup so will be staying a while.

  1. Hi Jack, and I am certainly glad you rescued that little fellow.

    God bless.

    1. I think he was tempted to chase me with it. But I reminded him that I could fall. And that he is a oerfect gentleman. One way or another I stayed safe.

  2. We call it Leek and potato soup, glad you weren't chased.

    1. Not sure why I wrote potato and leek - there was very little potato and a lot of leeks!

  3. Good for Jack. Rescuer and garden genie.

    1. He continues to rescue my garden too. My hero - that's what he'd like to think,

  4. That is great the frog was rescued and that Jack did not chase you with the frog! We know he wouldn't do that.

  5. Nice to see both of them! I was so excited to see a frog in my garden last year...but sadly no toads like this beauty!x

  6. Almost as beautful as its handler, don't you think!

  7. Encourage the amphibian to stay, he'll take care of all the slugs in your garden.

    1. The amphibian made his own decision. As did the other visitor. I hope both will be back.

  8. I used to have lots of tiny baby frogs every Spring, runaways (or should that be 'hopaways'?) from my neighbour's pond. I used to carefully scrutinise the lawn before mowing it. . . . .
    But now the neighbour has got rid of the fish and filled in the pond: no more visiting froglets and carefree mowing of the lawn. However, I occasionally have a toad which sits on my front doorstep and can be heard in the evenings, croaking from the 'ferny' border. I can't think how far he goes to find another pond.

    1. There isn't a pond near here either. My toad would have a lengthy search!
