I'm so glad you're okay, @addy1!

Thanks me to. I usually stay far away from trees, when the wind is blowing. There was none, but we had just had almost 4 inches of rain.

We have a lot of old vine covered trees in our yard, left for critters. I never walk down there.

Got the three loop ponds running.

Three masses of tree frog eggs in them. They are the first to lay eggs here. Toads next, then the green frogs.

i believe those are salamander eggs , frogs and toads generally lay a mass of eggs not in a line.

Humm have never seen a salamander here. The tree frogs have been singing.

Our toads lay down lines of eggs, double strands. The green frogs a gooey mass.

Per the netYou can see the egg.

Frogs you can see the embryo

Still waiting on an Amazon order that is now 48 hours late. Have hundreds of seedlings that need repotted. Ordered 300 paper cups and 10lbs coconut coir.
While I'm waiting I got my Dremil out and scored 3 colors of lotus seeds. Hopefully the weather will be good when they are ready to move outside of the greenhouse.

Sat put with the pups, watched the eclipse.

Sat out tonight and had a fire. Saw a great horned owl and two great blue herons fly over. Heard chorus frogs and toads calling in the distance. Not a bad way to spend an evening!

I don't normally do arts and crafts this time of year but I made an ornament based on a logo I created years ago for my native garden twitter account.
